According to the WMO, El Niño is expected to reach a very strong intensity and remain active until 2027, representing an extended period of global climate effects. The organization notes an unprecedented consensus among various global meteorological forecasting centers regarding the evolution of this phenomenon.
The article mentions Pacific Ocean water temperature increases of up to 8°C, which contributes to the extreme climate conditions associated with El Niño. This warming of the waters impacts weather patterns worldwide.
