Extreme El Niño years: Which parts of the world actually become more livable/pleasant?

Hey guys,

With all the talk about this year’s super El Niño causing chaotic weather globally, we usually only hear about the disasters—extreme heatwaves, catastrophic flooding, or severe droughts.

But looking at it from a purely geographical and climate perspective, every massive climate shift has a few weird anomalies. I’m curious about the "silver linings."

Which specific regions or cities actually get a temporary upgrade in livability during a major El Niño year?

For example:

Does somewhere traditionally bone-dry and scorching get a rare, cooler, and greener spring/summer?

Do certain notoriously freezing, gloomy regions get a much-welcomed milder and sunnier winter?

Obviously, I'm not downplaying the global climate crisis, but I'm genuinely fascinated by the micro-climate winners in all this chaos. If you had to "climate-shelter" in a place that actually benefits from El Niño conditions, where are you heading?

Curious to hear your hot takes or any cool meteorological facts on this!
