The Latest Breaking News from El Niño

Weather experts warn Queenslanders to keep their woollies close with temperatures about to drop this weekend, ahead of a warmer, drier winter on the cards with an El Niño imminent.

The BOM's latest climate update keeps the possibility of El Niño at 50 per cent, but the US's chief forecast agency, NOAA, says it's a 90 per cent chance.

CSIRO has found greenhouse gas emissions have likely been making El Niño and La Niña events more frequent and extreme since the 1960s. Up until now little was known about the role it played.

The U.N. weather agency has warned that El Niño and human-caused climate change will likely push temperatures into "uncharted territory."

The summer temperatures will continue around the country this week, but could the ‘beast from the east’ be lurking?

The World Meteorological Organization cites the likely occurrence of El Niño as one reason for the high odds, because it would boost already elevated global average surface temperatures.

Global temperatures are set to break records in the next five years, with a 98 per cent chance one will be the warmest ever recorded, according to a new report from the UN's meteorological agency.

One year in the next five will almost certainly be the hottest on record and there’s a two-in-three chance a single year will cross the crucial 1.5℃ global warming threshold, an alarming new report by the World Meteorological Organization predicts.

UN agency says El Niño and human-induced climate breakdown could combine to push temperatures into ‘uncharted territory’
