Hellish Summer is Coming: Here’s What Awaits Us and How We’ll Endure It Following a cooler period, the global climate system is gearing up for El Niño, which could bring extreme temperature records. Experts warn that regardless of natural cycles like El Niño and La Niña, global temperatures continue to rise due to climate change, with 2027 potentially becoming the hottest year on record.

• El Niño is expected to return between June and August 2026, with a 62% probability.
• The current La Niña phase in the tropical Pacific is expected to end soon.
• A ‘super El Niño’ (surface sea temperature 2 degrees above average) has a 15% chance by November.
• El Niño can cause droughts in some US regions and floods in others, while intensifying Pacific storms.
• Scientists emphasize that rising global temperatures are driven by climate change, not just natural cycles.
• 2024 is currently the hottest year on record, and 2027 could be even hotter.
