El Niño is here and could become 'super' – record heat expected.

Global weather agencies have confirmed that El Niño has officially started. Forecast models show a high chance that this event will become a "super" El Niño, meaning it will be unusually strong. El Niño is a natural climate pattern that warms the Pacific Ocean. It shifts weather systems worldwide, often leading to extreme conditions such as floods, droughts, and heatwaves. Scientists warn that this year’s El Niño could push global temperatures to record highs. The pattern is known to amplify extreme weather, and experts are closely monitoring its development.
