A "Super" El Niño May Be Brewing on a Warming Planet
Original: A “Super” El Niño Is Brewing on an Already Warming Planet - Here’s Why That Matters
Forecasters are warning that a "super" El Niño could be forming, arriving on top of already record-high global temperatures. El Niño, the periodic warming of the eastern Pacific, typically drives hotter weather, droughts, floods and disrupted harvests worldwide. Meteorologists say the combination with human-caused warming raises the risk of unprecedented heat extremes and new global temperature records in the coming months.
Why now: Warnings of an exceptionally strong El Niño stacking onto record global heat have raised concerns about extreme weather worldwide.
