Mexico.- Mexico faces a prolonged heat wave that, according to the Max Defender 8 report, will continue for at least nine more days. until May 29 with a “heat dome.”
This phenomenon, known as a heat domebegan on May 20 and is generating extremely high temperatures in several regions of Mexico.
What is a heat dome? A heat dome is a high-pressure system that traps hot air in a specific region, preventing its dispersion and causing a prolonged heat wave.
Unlike low pressure systems or storms, the heat dome acts as an atmospheric blockraising temperatures by compressing and heating the air.
This phenomenon can be triggered by sudden changes in ocean temperatures.where the warmer water heats the air which, when pushed towards land, is trapped by a high pressure system.
The duration of this heat dome highlights the urgency of addressing the climate crisisconsidered the greatest current threat.
Since the need arises to question the crisis model in order to mitigate the effects of extreme phenomena.
Meteorologists and climate experts warn of the consequences of this heat domewhich will not only affect the health of the population, but also the economy and local ecosystems with extreme droughts.
What to do during a heat wave?
Due to the strong heat waves, the population is recommended to take precautions to avoid heat stroke, stay hydrated and reduce sun exposure during peak heat hours.
