A warm Indian Ocean played a role in slowing El Nino development in 2014. The Indian Ocean plays a huge role in world's weather.

La Niña ends; ENSO Outlook set to INACTIVE
http://www.bom.gov.au/climate/enso/outlook/

Code: Select all

The weak 2017-18 La Niña that has been active since December 2017, has ended. All atmospheric and oceanic indices are now at neutral levels, with most model outlooks suggesting neutral-ENSO (El Niño-Southern Oscillation) is the most likely scenario through the southern hemisphere autumn and early winter. The ENSO Outlook has returned to INACTIVE.

An INACTIVE status means that ENSO is neutral and there are no clear indications that an El Niño or La Niña event will develop in the coming months.

Bureau climatologists routinely monitor the tropical Pacific for any signs of developing ENSO events, regardless of the ENSO Outlook status. Further information on the current status of ENSO can be found in the ENSO Wrap-Up, linked below.

The Australian BOM has declared La Nina over.
