The possibility of utilization of teleconnection and ENSO indices in long term total
rain forecast is concluded here. Lag relationship between total monthly rain anomalies for
two rain periods are calculated, with the ENSO empirical occurrence index (IE) and South
Oscillation Index (SOI) showing the great correlation values for atmospheric parameters .
For the sea surface temperature anomalies, the lag correlation have the great
correlation’s with Niño34 in dray season months and North Atlantic anomalies for
rainy season months.
