Associated Press reports that El Nino has been blamed for every "snow storm, dry spell and heat wave across the country" and even for "monstrous home runs this season" in baseball (ENSO was also blamed in one posting elsewhere for the stock market 'correction'--Ed.). Michael Glantz, from the National Center for Atmospheric Research, stated: " The forecasters are saying way more than the science supports". Ernest Daghir of the National Weather Service noted: "Things about El Nino are not that cut and dried".
