El Niño is already the strongest we’ve seen in more than 15 years, and it’s only getting stronger, according to a report released Monday from the U.N.’s World Meteorological Organization.
In fact, the weather pattern, which has already delivered extreme weather in parts of the world, is on track to be among the most powerful ever. It’s already been blamed for extreme weather events around the world, including major coral bleaching, an intense cyclone season, wildfires in Southeast Asia and drought conditions in parts of Africa, to name just a few.

Already the highest anomaly on record and no signs it's ready to peak.
Could be an interesting year from CA to TX.

I paid for it..I expect a warmth..
I’m putting my boots on right now!

“Women and minorities hardest hit.”

"We're all going to die. Eventually."
For sure this will cause terrorism to rise to new heights.
AlGore was reported safe.
UN? Give me a break. Our once sterling tecnnically excellent scientific community has degenerated into a bunch of climate Nazi’s and enviroweenies. I don’t believe a word they say anymore. They falsify the data to support their lunatic theories. The Golden age of the Twentieth Century and space exploration are gone forever. Our education system produces mostly zombies now. See Watter’s World.
Help! We’re going to drown during the drought in California! ;-)
Lol, whatever!
I’ll be sure to elect more democrats and change my country’s economic system and give all my money to the UN, and surrender my gun rights to fight it.
Lord knows, the last thing I want is a rain storm on a cold morning.
Figures, I just bought a snowmobile.
