The anticipated super El Niño could lead to significant disruptions worldwide. In the U.S., warmer winters in the north and wetter, cooler winters in the south are expected, increasing the risk of flash floods. Globally, the event may cause failed harvests, infrastructure damage from flooding, and financial losses exceeding a trillion dollars. Additionally, the warmer ocean temperatures could amplify hurricane activity in the Central and Eastern Pacific. Scientists also warn of increased disease burdens and heightened risks of extreme weather events, which are becoming more frequent and severe due to human-induced climate change.
