Kenya braces for heavy rainfall as UN says El Niño to strenghten

By GhanaSummary NewsroomPan-Africa

El Niño is forecast to be the strongest since comparable records began four decades ago, the United Nations' climate agency warned Thursday, with the UN chief saying the world was in the "danger zone of extreme weather".

The weather phenomenon is set to become "very strong" in the months ahead and is near certain to persist through to February, the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) said.

El Niño will peak towards the end of this year — though its knock-on impacts for the climate will continue well into 2027, said the WMO.
