El Niño is a climate phenomenon characterized by the warming of sea surface temperatures in the central and eastern Pacific Ocean, which can trigger extreme weather patterns including heavy precipitation, river flooding, and landslides in affected regions. Climate experts warn that an intensified El Niño event, dubbed 'Niño Godzilla,' could cause significant rainfall and potential floods in northern Chilean cities like Antofagasta, with international organizations monitoring signals of intensification toward late 2026.
