El Nino breaks Pacific temperature record as weather pattern intensifies
World2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported50m ago
An intensifying El Nino weather pattern pushed sea surface temperatures in a key Pacific monitoring region to a record 29.70 degrees Celsius in September, according to the European Union's Copernicus climate service.
Global forecasters had been warning for months that the current El Nino episode would likely become the strongest ever observed. This latest temperature record has tumbled even before the weather pattern reaches its expected peak later this year.
The intensifying El Nino raises risks of droughts and floods globally and exacerbates overall global warming trends.
