According to various news sources, scientists are predicting that 2007 is going to be the hottest year on record with average temperatures exceeding records set in 1998.
The cause? Global warming trends combined with an El Nino weather phenomenon. According to an International Herald Tribune article, Britain's Meteorological Office predicts that the warming El Nino phenomenon will continue for the first few months of 2007. The effects of this trend will be felt months afterwards.
The warm weather is already having a negative effect on ski resorts around the world, and the warming trend is likely to change weather patterns.
