The ongoing El Niño is expected to have widespread impacts, including extreme heat, drought, and flooding in various regions. In the U.S., the South and California could experience increased rainfall, raising the risk of flooding, while the Mississippi River basin may also face heightened flood risks. Additionally, disruptions to agriculture, supply chains, and infrastructure are anticipated, with potential economic losses similar to the $4 trillion impact of the 2015-16 El Niño. Vulnerable communities, particularly low-income neighborhoods, are likely to bear the brunt of heat-related illnesses, poor air quality, and rising energy costs. Globally, regions such as Latin America, eastern and southern Africa, Asia, and the Pacific are expected to face severe challenges.
