In May 2026, Europe experienced a rapid climate transition from cooler-than-average conditions to an unusually early & intense heatwave. 🇫🇷🇬🇧🇮🇪🇵🇹 saw their highest May temperatures on record, accdg to @CopernicusEU Climate Change Service’s latest bulletin. bit.ly/4ek0T1L

El Niño typically has a warming effect on global temperatures, with the strongest influence often felt in the year after it develops.
It typically brings wetter conditions to some regions and drought to others, though effects vary around the world.

The oceans are vital to weather forecasting and climate prediction. Here are 5 reasons:
1️⃣ Your 7-day weather forecast depends on ocean observations. Observations provide data on sea surface temperature, ocean heat content, as well as waves and sea ice. #worldoceansday

5️⃣ Safe and efficient marine activities depend on ocean conditions. Forecasting and #EarlyWarnings help ensure the safety of shipping industries, fisheries, tourism, and coastal communities that all rely on weather and marine hazard information.

To understand our weather and climate, we need to know more about the oceans. To understand the oceans, we need a strong Global Ocean Observing System.

A powerful magnitude 7.8 earthquake struck the southern Philippines earlier today, prompting tsunami warnings in the Philippines, Indonesia and Japan.
We can't stop tsunamis, but we can prevent them from becoming disasters. wmo.int/activities/early-war…

All life on Earth depends on the climate system. By observing its signals, we better understand our changing world, improve forecasts, and safeguard our planet.

An El Niño is emerging. What do you know about it?
El Niño is a powerful natural climate pattern that warms ocean waters in the central and eastern Equatorial Pacific. It typically occurs every 2-7 years, but no two El Niños are exactly alike.

World Meteorological Organization retweeted
El Niño is arriving on our doorstep in the coming months with 90% certainty.
The world must treat it as the urgent climate warning it is.
The only effective response is #ClimateAction equal to the crisis – ending the addiction to fossil fuels, accelerating the shift to renewables, protecting the most vulnerable, and delivering early warning systems for all.
