One of the strongest El Niños ever recorded is collapsing fast — and La Niña is rising to take its place. In this video, we break down what's really happening deep beneath the Pacific Ocean, why this shift could trigger a hyperactive Atlantic hurricane season, drier conditions across the southern US, floods in Australia, a stronger Indian monsoon, and drought risk from South America to East Africa.
We explain El Niño and La Niña in simple terms: what causes them, why this transition is happening faster than usual, and what history tells us about super El Niño years flipping into multi-year La Niña events. You'll also learn why global temperatures often peak the year after a super El Niño, and what this means for hurricane season, food prices, and extreme weather in the months ahead.
If you want to understand the biggest driver of global weather before it hits the headlines, this is the video for you.

Our older farmers used to say that if the rains come early then it means that the crops will not get enough water during the growing and harvest cycle.
They said that the major heavy rainfall should arrive round about mid October.
So far where I live in Johannesburg we have already had 45 millimetres of rainfall with the temperatures fluctuating from very hot to very cold
Thanks for your interesting video which explains the above.
I think that our farmers are going to have a tough year.
