I believe the answer is:

el nino

(Other definitions for el nino that I've seen before include "Unusual Pacific condition (Sp. The Christ Child)" , "Warming Pacific current" , "Pacific climatic feature" , "Pacific feature affecting climate" , "modern opera" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
