El Niño's impacts are expected to vary by region. In the U.S., wetter conditions are likely in the southern states, while the northern regions may experience warmer and drier weather. Globally, areas such as Indonesia and the northern Amazon could face severe droughts. Marine ecosystems and fisheries may also be disrupted, leading to economic consequences. Although El Niño typically suppresses Atlantic hurricane activity, the heightened ocean temperatures caused by climate change could still fuel destructive storms. The Pacific Northwest may see drier conditions, while other regions brace for potential heat waves and extreme weather events.
