The WMO said there is a 70% chance of El Niño developing by the end of 2018, with intensity uncertain and a strong event considered unlikely. The agency noted that 2018 began with a weak La Niña and that global temperatures are tracking toward one of the warmest years on record.
A 70% chance of El Niño is a weather risk for Australian, Southeast Asian and South American crops, but WMO expects a weaker event than 2015-16, which limits the likely size of supply disruption and price impact.
