Introduction – Methods CRITFC forecast uses a holistic, integrated big picture view. Big-picture: Solar Forcing (e.g., sunspot cycles) does influenceour global weather patterns over the long term (decades).In memoriam: Dr. Landscheidt, of Germany (1922 – 2004). Track ENSO with the Multi-variable ENSO Index: MEI. NOAA’s Sea-Surface Temperature Departure Forecasts. Hydro-Climate approach: Use a regression: Multi-variable ENSOIndex (1950-2020) vs. historic runoff for the Columbia River atThe Dalles, then compute a WY2021 Water Supply Forecast. Select the “right” mixture of 20 past Water Years (next slide). Pattern recognition is key: ENSO-Neutral and La Niña years.
