So if El Niño, should we expect very hot couple summers ahead? If global temperature trends have already been increasing, and that increase has been stymied by La Niña (see the article's "escalator" analogy), then a warming El Niño in the midst of no-longer-mitigated-by-La-Niña global warming could mean a sudden spike in temps. No?
