![]() I recommend this for those who are fans of the telenovela sort of stories. To me, they all sounded sleezy, even the patriarch Escandon who is a good guy. I wasn’t a fan of her narrations of male voices. Corzo is great with the female voices and even one with a French accent. I listened to the audio narrated by Frankie Corzo. I didn’t need to read that interview to see exactly what she did. Times that she channeled the telenovela theme while writing this story. Escandon proves differently.Įscandon also admits in an interview with the L.A. Escandon made the weather the main character, as almost each chapter includes the climate, even though most East Coast people think that there is no weather there it’s a constant temp with little rain. My family is incredibly boring relatively speaking.Īs the title suggests, the weather does figure prominently. In one year, the family endured: a brain tumor, infidelity, a gender-fluid teen, kleptomania, artificial insemination, divorce, subterfuge, hidden businesses, raw sex, near drowning, rape, climate change, and gender politics as examples. This is one crazy soap opera story! Author Maria Amparo Escandon writes an ambitious tale of the Alvarado family. With quick wit and humor, Maria Amparo Escandón follows the Alvarado family as they wrestle with impending evacuations, secrets, deception, and betrayal, and their toughest decision yet: whether to stick together or burn it all down. Each will have to take a critical look at her own relationships and make some tough decisions along the way. Their three daughters-Claudia, a television chef with a hard-hearted attitude Olivia, a successful architect who suffers from gentrification guilt and Patricia, a social media wizard who has an uncanny knack for connecting with audiences but not with her lovers-are blindsided and left questioning everything they know. His wife, Keila, desperate for a life with a little more intimacy and a little less Weather Channel, feels she has no choice but to end their marriage. ![]() He’s harboring a costly secret that distracts him from everything else. is parched, dry as a bone, and all Oscar, the weather-obsessed patriarch of the Alvarado family, desperately wants is a little rain. The next ENSO Diagnostics Discussion is scheduled for 8 June 2023.FORECAST: Storm clouds are on the horizon in this fun, fast-paced novel of an affluent Mexican-American family from the author of the #1 Los Angeles Times bestseller Esperanza’s Box of Saints. A probabilistic strength forecast is available here. Additional perspectives and analysis are also available in an ENSO blog. Oceanic and atmospheric conditions are updated weekly on the Climate Prediction Center web site ( El Niño/La Niña Current Conditions and Expert Discussions). This discussion is a consolidated effort of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), NOAA's National Weather Service, and their funded institutions. ![]() In summary, a transition from ENSO-neutral is expected in the next couple of months, with a greater than 90% chance of El Niño persisting into the Northern Hemisphere winter. It is still possible the tropical atmosphere does not couple with the ocean, and El Niño fails to materialize (5-10% chance). ![]() While at least a weak El Niño is likely, the range of possibilities at the end of the year (November-January) include a 80% chance of at least a moderate El Niño (Niño-3.4 ≥ 1.0☌) to a ~55% chance of a strong El Niño (Niño-3.4 ≥ 1.5☌). The combination of a forecasted third westerly wind event in mid-late May, and high levels of above-average oceanic heat content, means that a potentially significant El Niño is on the horizon. The most recent IRI plume also indicates El Niño is likely to form during the May-July season and persist into the winter. While the warming near coastal South America remains striking, the basin-wide coupled ocean-atmosphere system remained consistent with ENSO-neutral. Suppressed convection was observed over parts of Indonesia and anomalies weakened near the Date Line. Upper-level wind anomalies were westerly across most of the Pacific Ocean. Low-level wind anomalies were westerly during mid-April before switching back to easterly by the end of the month. Area-averaged subsurface temperatures anomalies continued to increase, reflecting widespread positive temperature anomalies below the surface of the equatorial Pacific Ocean. The latest weekly Niño-3.4 index value was +0.4☌, with the easternmost Niño-3 and Niño1+2 regions at +0.8☌ and +2.7☌, respectively.
