WMO: El Nino 100% likely through Feb, could be strongest in decades

The World Meteorological Organization forecasts a 100% likelihood that El Nino conditions will persist through February, with potential to become one of the strongest events in decades. This raises risks of extreme weather, agricultural disruption, and inflationary pressure on food and energy prices globally. The exact intensity remains uncertain, but the high probability of continuation signals significant climate and economic implications.
