What happened

Well supportedReported by 18 independent outlets

The current super El Niño is expected to strengthen through the fall and winter, potentially becoming the strongest on record in over 75 years. This climate pattern is driving severe heatwaves, wildfire risk, and drought conditions across the Great Plains and Colorado. Furthermore, El Niño has contributed to an unusually high number of hurricanes in the Pacific this season.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The climate phenomenon is threatening global agricultural supply chains. The warming Pacific pattern is influencing regional weather, leading to drought in Australia and Indonesia, while also increasing wildfire risk and exposure to reconstruction costs in California.

Who could feel it

Possible knock-on effects

These are possibilities Brind reasoned out, not predictions, and not advice. Most are not stated in any report.

  • IndonesiaSpeculative

    Indonesia might face reduced agricultural revenue due to drought conditions.

  • IndiaSpeculative

    India might face increased energy demand and higher agricultural costs from intense heat waves.
