Summary
The Japanese Meteorological Agency (JMA) has officially declared the onset of El Niño, becoming the first major weather organization to do so. Meteorologists worldwide are growing increasingly confident that a "super" El Niño could be imminent—potentially the strongest on record. Japan is bracing for above-normal temperatures due to above-average Pacific sea surface temperatures, and the NOAA is also monitoring the situation closely.
