The UP model predicts a cool ENSO-neutral state toward summer, while most models predict a weak La Nina event. The SW Cape is expected to experience below-normal rainfall totals for most of the winter and springs months. Spring is expected to be mostly drier than normal over the summer rainfall regions. At this stage, there is an icnreased likelihood of an above-normal rainfall season over the first part of the summer for the larger summer rainfall region.

The SW Cape may be warmer than normal, while mostly warmer than normal maximum temperatures are expected over the larger region from late winter, except over the southern and western coastal regions where is may be cooler than normal.
