"El Niño is likely on its way in 2026, bringing climate consequences that could be felt for years, as the U.S. endures one of its warmest and driest winters."
"Climate scientists are tracking the movement of warmer water toward U.S. coasts, which will likely trigger the onset of El Niño, impacting weather patterns across the country."
Predictions indicate a strong 'super El Niño' may develop in 2026, following a record-breaking warm March. The U.S. is currently experiencing one of its warmest and driest winters. El Niño, part of the El Niño Southern Oscillation, involves fluctuations in ocean temperatures and air pressure in the Pacific. This phenomenon typically leads to cooler, wetter conditions in the southern U.S. and hotter, drier conditions in the north, affecting storm patterns and potentially disrupting the Atlantic hurricane season.
