UN Warns Of 'Supersized' El Niño And Extreme Weather. The United Nations has warned the world has entered a "danger zone of extreme weather" as the effects of El Niño begin to be felt globally. The World Meteorological Organization says the natural weather phenomenon could become the strongest in more than 70 years and last until at least February 2027. El Niño alters weather patterns worldwide, bringing drought to some regions while increasing the risk of severe flooding and stronger typhoons elsewhere. Forecasters also expect it to push temperatures higher in some areas, adding to warming caused by human-induced climate change. UN Secretary-General António Guterres described the current El Niño as being "supersized", warning the planet was entering uncharted territory. Governments are strengthening early-warning systems and preparing medical assistance, but there are particular concerns about the impact on vulnerable communities.
