Recently, the topic of the "strongest El Nio in 140 years" and its impact on global high temperatures has sparked widespread public attention. The National Climate Center responded by stating that it is expected to enter an El Nio state in May and form a moderate to strong El Nio event in the summer and autumn, lasting at least until the end of this year. In response to the statement about "Earth possibly hitting temperature extremes this year," experts from the National Climate Center said that it is still too early to make such claims considering the delayed effects of El Nio, but the related risks are significantly increasing.
