El Niño is expected to bring significant changes to global weather patterns, with wetter conditions likely in the southern United States, southern South America, and parts of Africa and Asia. Conversely, drier conditions are anticipated in Central America, northern South America, the Caribbean, Australia, and parts of southern Asia. The phenomenon may also suppress Atlantic hurricane activity while increasing cyclone potential in the central and eastern Pacific. These changes could exacerbate existing climate hazards, such as heatwaves, droughts, and heavy rainfall, posing risks to agriculture, water management, and energy sectors. Vulnerable populations may face heightened challenges due to these shifts.
