The Pacific Ocean has warmed to a historic high. The anomaly is approximately 3.2 degrees Celsius above normal. The already strong El Niño weather phenomenon is expected to reach its peak this winter. Climatologists expect this year's El Niño to be the strongest since 1877. This should result in the surface waters in the eastern Pacific Ocean becoming at least 3 degrees warmer than normal. It is noted that between 1877 and 1878, this effect caused widespread famine due to a series of severe droughts.
