• Resumen

  • El Nino crashes on to the scene once every four years or so as hot water emerges in the Pacific and moves towards the Americas. This can bring drought to Australia and parts of Asia, while parts of the Americas experience heavy rain, flooding and outbreaks of waterborne diseases. Many experts are warning of a "super El Nino" this time round. Similar forecasts were made last year, too, and proved wide of the mark.
