What happened

Well supportedReported by 10 independent outlets

The El Niño climate pattern has entered super El Niño territory, with sea-surface temperatures in the Pacific Ocean reaching 5.49 degrees above average last month, according to reports from el-balad.com and gizmodo.com. NOAA stated that the event could strengthen further and has a 75% chance of exceeding the strength of previous events dating back to at least 1950. Model projections suggest the event's influence could persist well into 2027.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The current El Niño is contributing to weather chaos globally, with warm weather patterns causing tropical rainfall to move into Indonesia. Furthermore, the strong El Niño is increasing wind shear and reducing Atlantic hurricane frequency across the Americas. NOAA is also monitoring marine heatwave risks for Baja California and Oregon.
