2024 El Niño: Predicted Flooding, Heat Waves, and Droughts

A strong El Niño is expected in early 2024, which could cause flooding in South America, Southeast Asia and Australia, as well as extreme heat and drought in Africa, North America and Europe.

Scientists are warning that the El Niño phenomenon, which warmed the world to record hot levels last summer, will cause floods and extreme heat in early 2024. This will all happen due to warming in the Pacific Ocean, which will cause global temperatures to rise in the short term.

Large companies have already received warnings about possible problems in their work: interruptions in the supply of goods and logistics are expected. Scientists predict that the El Niño phenomenon will last until at least April next year, and 2024 could be “even warmer than 2023,” already recognized as the warmest.

Scientists say heat waves, drought, wildfires, heavy rain and flooding will worsen in the coming months. Many people should prepare for the serious consequences of the disaster. These extreme weather conditions can negatively impact agriculture, human health, biodiversity and the economy, so climate change adaptation and mitigation measures must be taken.

It was previously reported that experts predictedthat in Ukraine the autumn of 2023 will be one of the warmest in the entire history of observations.
