“The onset of El Niño will greatly increase the likelihood of breaking temperature records and triggering more extreme heat in many parts of the world and in the ocean,” warned WMO secretary-general Petteri Taalas.
The US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, which feeds into the WMO, announced on June 8 that El Niño had arrived.It noted that El Niño’s warming effect on global temperatures is usually felt most strongly within a year of its onset — in this case in 2024.El Niño is the large-scale warming of surface temperatures in the central and eastern equatorial Pacific Ocean.
In May, the WMO predicted a 98-percent likelihood that at least one of the next five years — and the five-year period as a whole — will be warmest on record.
