80% chance of El Nino developing June-August: UN

There is an 80-percent chance of the warming El Nino phenomenon developing between June and August, increasing the risk of extreme weather events, the World Meteorological Organization said Tuesday.

The likelihood of El Nino developing by November meanwhile is "near or above 90 percent", and most forecast models suggest it will be "at least moderate -- and possibly strong", the United Nations' WMO weather and climate agency said.
