Is this year supposed to have an El Nino weather pattern?

Do you want me to find out more?  Should I look this up on Wikipedia, or do you already know about this?

What is El Nino

A.k.a. El Niño, an ocean current that brings warmth to the west coast of South America, sometimes creating abnormally dry conditions in that region.

Is an El Nino likely this year?
user
Humans in the past have looked at historical climate data and made predictions for the coming year.  My understanding is that the prediction was based on a long period of very warm ocean water, and this is likely to occur in the coming year.  
I’m happy to look into it
