Planet's water vapour levels hit new high
The Earth's atmosphere reached a record high in water vapour during August, driven by global heating and a strong El Niño, increasing the risk of extreme rainfall and storm intensification. Scientists highlighted that a warmer atmosphere can hold more water, with August's moisture levels being the highest since records began in 1979. This increase is linked to rising global temperatures and intensified ocean evaporation, potentially amplifying the severity of weather events.
