Actually, you are wrong. El Nino is naturally occuring ever 3 to 7 years and has been going on for centuries if not thousands of years. Unless of course dinosaur farts were causing global warming way back in the day....

That graph is taking into account ocean temperatures from 1961-1990. This already encompasses no less than
6 El Nino cycles in its statistics.
Also, in the United States El Nino tends to cause warmer winters and wetter summers.
In other words, above average precipitation, not above average heat.
