Heat Domes are only getting worse š„µ#ACEPartner ā£ ā£ A heat dome occurs when a high-pressure system traps hot air and prevents it from escaping, kinda like putting a lid on a pot. They can last for weeks and span several states, and this weather phenomenon has become much more prevalent and intense because of climate change š„ā£ ā£ Not only does a heat dome have major health consequences for us, it also puts tremendous strain on our local healthcare workers. So much so in fact, that Greyās Anatomy aired a few episodes about it including their mid season premier š„ā£ ā£ Our communities and our first responders deserve better, and itās yet another reason we have to continue to build climate resilient cities and fight for effective climate policy š ā£ ā£ #ACECC #DangerDomeā£
