Super Niño threat: NEA braces for 300mm rain in hours, Pacific heat exceeds 1982/97

A CECOAL-CONICET researcher warns that Pacific Ocean heat accumulation is significantly higher than during the 1982 and 1997 floods, raising the risk of extreme rainfall (up to 300mm in hours) in Argentina's Northeast (NEA). The claim is expert opinion, not yet observed, and the impact depends on storm development. This signals elevated flood risk for the region.
