What happened

Well supportedReported by 12 independent outlets

A strong El Niño, a climate pattern that occurs every two to seven years, is currently underway and is being monitored by NOAA. This pattern involves warm water in the Pacific Ocean affecting wind currents, leading to varied weather conditions globally. The current cycle is causing a shift toward increased hurricane and typhoon activity in the Pacific basin.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The El Niño cycle is currently influencing the outlook for the upcoming hurricane season in both the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. While the Atlantic hurricane season has seen a quiet peak period this year, the overall global weather patterns are being shaped by the climate pattern. This increased activity is already being factored into catastrophe modeling for extreme weather damage.
