Super El Niño Just Took a Huge Turn — And Nobody Knows What Just Happened

Super El Niño Just Took a Huge Turn — And Nobody Knows What Just Happened Three weeks ago, the Pacific was on track to build the strongest El Niño ever recorded. Then, in just eleven days, the water off South America dropped nearly three degrees Celsius while the central Pacific kept heating up. The El Niño didn't die. Something moved it, and that shift may have just loosened the lid on the Atlantic. You'll see the three suspects forecasters have been arguing over: the Madden-Julian Oscillation, a discharging Kelvin wave, and a shape-shifting El Niño. Then follow the fallout to the western Caribbean, where months of untouched, record-warm water now sits under weakening wind shear, with hurricane season not over yet.
