El Niño Arrives with Potential Strength
El Niño has developed in the tropical Pacific, with NOAA forecasting it could intensify to a moderate or strong level this fall. There is a 63% chance that sea surface temperatures will exceed 2°C above neutral, potentially making it a "very strong" El Niño. This climate event is expected to impact global weather patterns, including altered storm activity and regional droughts or flooding. Past significant El Niño events occurred in 1982-83, 1997-98, and 2015-16.
