A report from the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) has prompted experts to comment on the likelihood of an El Niño event. The WMO has indicated that the likelihood of El Niño has increased, with some outlets suggesting it could be a "strong" or even "super" El Niño, potentially leading to record-breaking global heat. The potential impact of El Niño is being closely watched, particularly in regions such as Southeast Asia, where it could exacerbate existing challenges.
