There is a train of three hurricanes crossing the Pacific. El Niño is already showing its fury

Three hurricanes are simultaneously crossing the Pacific Ocean, a phenomenon considered rare by scientists. Hurricane Marie recently transformed into a hurricane of as yet unspecified category off the coast of Baja California, followed by hurricanes Karina and Lowell, both category 4, heading west. Scientists attribute this trio of storms to abnormally warm waters caused by a historically strong El Niño, which creates ideal conditions for the formation and intensification of these storms, which depend heavily on warm waters to feed on.
