Hi Wayne,
NOAA has a nice website devoted to El Nino and La Nina. The Pacific is currently experiencing La Nina conditions as defined by cool temperature anomalies in sea surface temperature. Here is the link:

As I understand it, the Calif. coast has had colder weather this summer in the northern part, and warmer in the south. I heard someone say we are experiencing La Nina, but I don't think so, El Nino. How do climatologist call the shot on this? Book, website? Lots of stuff out there, but I've found nothing on this question.
