Macau may face more intense typhoons in the coming months due to the El Niño phenomenon. This is the forecast presented in the article regarding the meteorological conditions that the region may face.
El Niño is characterized by an increase in surface temperatures in the central and eastern equatorial Pacific. This atmospheric-oceanic phenomenon has a significant impact on global climate patterns.
Normally, El Niño occurs every two to seven years and each episode has an approximate duration of nine to twelve months. During this period, changes in ocean temperature patterns influence the formation and intensity of tropical storms in various regions of the world.
Macau authorities will be attentive to this forecast, considering that the region is already historically affected by typhoons during the storm season, which typically extends from May to November.
