The December 1991-February 1992 (DJF 91/92) season featured global scale atmospheric circulation, temperature, and precipitation anomalies consistent with those generally found during the mature phase of tropical Pacific warm ENSO episodes. The anomalous upper-tropospheric circulation features usually observed developed slowly during the season, but were well developed by February. The tropical and subtropical precipitation anomaly patterns reflected mature-phase ENSO conditions. A persistent anomalous circulation pattern in Europe was associated with highly anomalous temperatures and precipitation in sections of Europe and the eastern Mediterranean. 14 refs., 18 figs., 1 tab.
