THE STRONGEST EL NINO OF THE LAST 100 YEARS

CNN Türk Meteorology Advisor Prof. Dr. In his assessment, Orhan Şen said, "The rain will continue for the next week. It will be heavy in some regions, it may be heavy in Istanbul at the weekend. Temperatures have also started to drop. It will be rainy next week too, but it will not be this heavy."

Stating that a mild winter is expected due to Super El Nino, Prof. Dr. Şen said: "There is the strongest El Nino of the last 100 years. This means that the sea surface temperature in the eastern Pacific is 6 degrees above the average. The sea water at a depth of 200 meters below this receives this energy downwards, and heat accumulates in the water mass there. This heat adds both moisture and heat to the air mass above it and has an impact on meteorological events in the world. It increases the intensity of the precipitation, and we will see the effect of this in Turkey this year, too."
