Can an invisible weather system trap millions of people under extreme heat? In this video, we explain what a Heat Dome is, how it forms, and why it is causing dangerous temperatures across the United States. Learn how a high-pressure system traps hot air, blocks cool winds and rainfall, and intensifies heatwaves. We also explore the connection between heat domes and climate change, and why scientists believe global warming is making extreme heat events more frequent, longer-lasting, and more intense. As countries around the world experience record-breaking temperatures, understanding weather phenomena like heat domes has become more important than ever—especially for UPSC aspirants and anyone interested in geography, climatology, and current affairs. #HeatDome #HeatWave #ClimateChange #ExtremeHeat #VisionIAS
