El Nino could reach exceptional levels, WMO warns of global weather risks

The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) is warning that the current El Niño phenomenon could reach exceptional levels, potentially becoming one of the strongest in decades. WMO Secretary-General Celeste Saulo says the weather pattern could affect economies and communities across multiple sectors. Climate specialist Mark Howden explains how El Niño interacts with human-driven climate change and contributes to rising global temperatures and more intense weather extremes. Southeast Asia, Australia and South America are among the regions facing increased risks of drought, flooding, disrupted agriculture and food insecurity. The report examines what a stronger El Niño could mean for water resources, food production and communities around the world, as experts call for better preparation, water management and food distribution.
