There is a greater than 70% chance that an El Niño event will kick off in the equatorial tropical Pacific Ocean during the next four months, the Australian Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) said in a long-range forecast released on Tuesday. El Niño events are characterized by above average sea surface temperatures in a portion of the tropical Pacific Ocean, and can bring major changes to global weather patterns from the Western U.S. to sub-Saharan Africa.
