EL NINO

After a record-smashing hot summer, Earth's warming somehow got even worse in September.

Restrictions on food exports are spilling over from rice and wheat to other essentials.

How hot is Phoenix.

The U.N. weather agency says Earth endured its hottest Northern Hemisphere summer ever measured with a record warm August capping a season of brutal and deadly temperatures.

Scientists figure a natural El Nino, human-caused climate change, a stubborn heat dome over the nation’s midsection and other factors cooked up Hilary’s record-breaking slosh into California and Nevada.

Countries worldwide are scrambling to secure rice after a partial ban on exports by India cut global supplies by roughly a fifth.

Federal forecasters are doubling chances of a nasty Atlantic hurricane season this summer and fall.

Scientists are wondering if global warming and El Nino have an accomplice in fueling this summer’s record-shattering heat.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration says an already warming Earth steamed to its hottest June on record, smashing the old global mark by nearly a quarter of a degree, with global oceans setting temperature records for the third straight month.

The Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico are on fire. When it comes to Florida’s coral reefs, it’s not just that the water temperatures are blazing hot, it’s about how early the heat has come.

Scientists say global heat that inched into worrisome new territory this week is a clear example of how pollutants released by humans are warming their environment.

Extreme and violent weather events leave much to be reconciled in their wake, and perhaps the most dire practical circumstance is property damage.

Worldwide temperatures briefly exceeded a key warming threshold earlier this month, drawing notice in the scientific community and prompting public chatter that climate change might be accelerating.

A powerful typhoon churned over the U.S. Pacific territory of Guam and lashed the island with wind and rain.

A new study finds the natural burst of El Nino warming that changes weather worldwide is far costlier with longer-lasting expenses than experts had thought, averaging trillions of dollars in damage.

The United Nations' weather agency says there's a two-out-of-three chance that the world will reach the internationally accepted global temperature threshold for limiting the worst effects of climate change sometime in the next five years.

These are the driving forces for the 2023 hurricane season

In the east and Horn of Africa, a harrowing drought.

La Nina’s three-year run officially ended.

Forecasters with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association say we’ll see La Niña conditions during the Atlantic hurricane season, which means an active season for storms.

Winter does impact the Sunshine State and while it may not be with ice and snow, it is with storms and drought.

U.S. weather officials say Earth in July was the hottest month ever recorded.

In addition to those large-scale features, another large plume of Saharan dust is trekking across the Atlantic.

ORLANDO, Fla. – Thursday, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration officially declared that La Nina conditions are present. La Nina typically favors an active Atlantic basin during hurricane season, much like we’re seeing now. It had grown increasingly likely over the past few months that La Nina conditions would be around during the peak of hurricane season. This was one of the main factors in the much above average forecasts leading up to and during the current hurricane season. To be classified as a La Nina, sea surface temperature anomalies must greater than or equal to -0.5 degrees celsius.
