El Niño’s origins are in the Pacific Ocean, but its impacts reach around the globe. Learn how it works and how countries are affected with our interactive map.
Countries around the Pacific, and further afield, are preparing for an El Niño in 2023.

Learn about these impacts by tapping on the round icons in the interactive map below, or tap the square ? icon to see how El Niño develops.
