Australia's Outlook is Neutral right at the moment - ENSO - El Nino Southern Oscillation
At least they have a tracker for that! http://www.bom.gov.au/climate/enso/tracker/



The ENSO Outlook is INACTIVE. This means the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is neutral with little indication that El Niño or La Niña will develop in the coming months. During this time, other drivers, such as the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD), the Southern Annular Mode (SAM) or localised sea surface temperatures, are likely to play a bigger role in influencing Australian rainfall and temperature patterns. Climate models surveyed by the Bureau suggest a neutral ENSO state is the most likely scenario out to the end of spring. (My note: the end of Spring in these parts is end November).


Bureau climatologists routinely monitor the tropical Pacific for any signs of developing ENSO events, regardless of the ENSO Outlook status.
