The El Niño event developing(发展中的) over the Pacific Ocean is likely to be the strongest for more than a century and make 2027 another record-breaking(破纪录的) year for heat, the UK’s Met Office has said.
英国气象局表示，正在太平洋上发展的厄尔尼诺现象可能是百年来最强的一次，将使2027年成为又一个创纪录的炎热年份。
Increased rainfall and storms are forecast to hit the UK this autumn as a result of the “unprecedented” weather pattern, while the pulse in heat it generates means the global temperature will temporarily exceed 1.5C above the preindustrial average, according to the national weather service.(由于史无前例的天气模式，预计今年秋季英国将迎来更多降雨和风暴，而厄尔尼诺产生的热量脉冲意味着全球气温将暂时超过工业化前平均水平的1.5摄氏度。)

Some scientists have said temperatures could rise by as much as(多达) 1.7C during 2027. “We should be clear that this is an unprecedented event,” said Prof Adam Scaife, the Met Office’s head of long-range forecasting. “I have never seen an El Niño signal this intense(强烈的) in our forecasts.”
一些科学家表示，2027年气温可能上升多达1.7摄氏度。英国气象局长期预报负责人亚当·斯凯夫教授说：“我们应该清楚，这是一个史无前例的事件。在我的预报生涯中，从未见过如此强烈的厄尔尼诺信号。”
