The Cabinet’s Information and Decision Support Center (IDSC) said on Monday that global temperatures will rise to new records over the next five years.

El Niño conditions can cause further turmoil by shifting global precipitation patterns, IDSC said, citing WMO's latest report.

IDSC noted that the report shows that there is also a two-thirds chance that one of the next five years could be 1.5 degrees Celsius, or 2.7 degrees Fahrenheit, hotter than the 19th-century average.
