The WMO said it is likely El Nino will \u200bcontinue until November.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cWe need to prepare for a potentially strong El Ni\u00f1o event &#8211; which will exacerbate \u200bdrought and heavy rainfall and increase the risk of heatwaves both on land and in the ocean,&#8221; said WMO Secretary-General Celeste Saulo.<\/div>\n<div>The most recent El Nino, in 2023-24, contributed to 2024 being the hottest year on record, \u200bSaulo added.<\/div>\n<div>A shift has been observed in the Equatorial Pacific, with sea surface temperatures rising \u200brapidly from late April to mid-May, suggesting El Nino conditions were developing, the WMO said. The agency said \u200cit has \u2060observed unusually warm subsurface conditions across the tropical Pacific with temperatures exceeding 6 degrees Celsius above average, creating a reservoir of heat that is driving surface warming.<\/div>\n<div>The weather pattern is known to disrupt regional climates, potentially bringing increased rainfall to southern South America, the southern United States, \u200bparts of the Horn \u200bof Africa and central \u2060Asia, while causing drought in Australia, central America, Indonesia, and sections of southern Asia. It can also have a warming effect on the global \u200bclimate, and fuel hurricanes in the central and eastern Pacific Ocean, \u200bthe WMO said.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cThe \u2060world must treat it as the urgent climate warning it is. El Ni\u00f1o conditions will pour fuel on the fire of a warming world,\u201d said U.N. Secretary-General Ant\u00f3nio Guterres, urging a shift away \u2060from \u200bfossil fuels towards renewable energy.<\/div>\n<div>While there is no evidence that \u200bclimate change increases the frequency or intensity of El Nino events, it can make associated impacts such as extreme heatwaves \u200band heavy rainfall worse, according to the WMO.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/reliablemovingcrews.com\/?p=754\">EU paves way to allow migrant deportations to centres outside bloc<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/reliablemovingcrews.com\/?p=752\">SK Hynix plans to double wafer capacity in next five years, group chairman says<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/reliablemovingcrews.com\/?p=750\">From hiking to hotpot, lonely consumers in China fuel a $7.4 billion companionship economy<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The United Nations \u200bweather agency forecast a moderate or possibly strong El Nino that \u200ccould drive up global temperatures and increase the risk of extreme weather over the coming months.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":755,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[13],"class_list":["post-756","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-climate-change"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
