  • Current atmospheric behavior during the 'Super Niño' event exceeds traditional model parameters, indicating 'off the scale' intensity (Perfil, Vanguard).
  • The exact impacts of this unprecedented intensity remain uncertain, and specific data corroborating the 'off the scale' claim is lacking.
