El Nino effect
Although there is an anticipation of an early onset of summer in Hyderabad, the impact of the El Nino effect on the climate remains unclear.
El Nino is a climate pattern causing abnormal warming of surface water in the eastern tropical Pacific Ocean, leading to a rise in sea surface temperatures by as much as 4 to 5 degrees Celsius above normal. This phenomenon has a profound impact on weather patterns worldwide.
In Hyderabad, it can not only elevate summer temperatures but also influence rainfall and crop output.
