A heat dome is a powerful meteorological phenomenon where high-pressure systems trap hot air over regions, leading to extreme and prolonged heatwaves. This atmospheric squeeze intensifies temperatures, often surpassing previous records, and causes health and environmental impacts. Understanding heat domes is crucial for climate resilience, as they highlight the escalating severity of global warming. Recognized for their role in recent record-breaking heat events, heat domes underscore the urgency of climate awareness and adaptation strategies.
