Hot and dry days from El Nino set to hit later this year, say experts

PETALING JAYA: El Nino, the weather pattern that usually brings hot and dry days, is forecast to come later this year, say climatologists.

Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia’s Earth Sciences and Environment Department chairman Prof Dr Fredolin Tangang said while it was still early to tell at this stage, experimental models tended to predict between a weak and a moderate El Nino.
