The United Nations' weather and climate agency warned Thursday that global temperatures will likely remain at or near record levels for the next several years, with a 75 percent chance that the 2026-2030 five-year average will exceed 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. The agency noted that all 11 hottest years on record have occurred since 2015, and a new temperature record is likely before 2031.
An investigation into Singapore Airlines flight SQ321's severe turbulence incident has identified a weather radar failure as a key factor. The airline has committed to enhanced safety measures following the tragedy, which resulted in one fatality and dozens of injuries.
Meteorologists confirmed the arrival of El Nino in the Pacific Ocean on Thursday, warning the climate pattern could grow into one of the strongest on record. Experts say it is likely to amplify global heat and fuel extreme weather, including floods, droughts, wildfires and powerful storms, over the coming months.
Meteroogists forecast it will rival โ or exceed โ record El Niรฑo from 1997 and further heat globe El Niรฑo, Natureโs chaotic climate agent, has formed in a warmed-up Pacific Ocean and is expected to grow to historic strength, meteorologists announced on Thursday. Experts said the El Niรฑo, a natural warming cycle, should further heat a globe already warming from fossil fuel pollution and will probably turbocharge extreme weather across the planet. Meteorologists forecast it will rival โ or exceed โ a record El Niรฑo that began in 1997 and helped trigger billions of dollars in damage from heatwaves, floods, droughts, tornadoes and wildfires.
The UN confirmed the onset of El Niรฑo and urged countries to strengthen early warning systems, cautioning that the Pacific Ocean-warming phenomenon will drive above-average temperatures worldwide and increase extreme weather risks.
Warnings of a strong El Nino weather phenomenon this year suggest the coming months could be characterized by drought, flooding and extreme heat. What impacts are in store, and can we prepare for the worst of it?
