一句话看懂
NOAA forecasts a very strong El Niño for 2026-27 winter, with 69% chance of record strength. The super El Niño could bring wetter, milder conditions and coastal flooding risks.
背景
El Niño is a climate phenomenon marked by above-average sea surface temperatures in the equatorial Pacific. NOAA declared El Niño in June 2026, and it is expected to intensify into a 'super' El Niño, possibly the strongest of the century. This could significantly influence winter weather across the US, with wetter conditions in the South and West, and warmer temperatures in the North.
