I don't know about the phases. this is too local for La Nina. After
a low pressure system goes through it seems to be frequently followed

a combination of low pressure and high pressure systems interacting.

Don't lows & highs always interact? Pressure flows from high to low.

If it went directly from high to low we wouldn't have much weather,
everything would equal out. Coriolis gets in the way. In this case
we had a low pressure area to the east, circling anti-clockwise, and a
high pressure to the west circling clockwise. Between them the wind
blew south with added velocity.
