The El Niño climate phenomenon is "firmly established" and is expected to peak at the end of 2026, becoming "very strong," according to alerts from the World Meteorological Organization (WMO).
The organization points to a near 100% probability that El Niño will persist until February 2027, anticipating significant impacts on global temperature and precipitation patterns.
This climate event could contribute to 2027 becoming the hottest year ever recorded, intensifying the extreme weather conditions already observed in recent years.
