Who is Heat_Wave?
A heat wave (or heatwave), sometimes described as extreme heat, is a period of abnormally hot weather.: 2911 Definitions vary but are similar. A heat wave is usually measured relative to the usual climate in the area and to normal temperatures for the season.: 2911 Temperatures that humans from a hotter climate consider normal, can be regarded as a heat wave in a cooler area. This would be the case if the warm temperatures are outside the normal climate pattern for that area. High humidity often occurs during heat waves as well. This is especially the case in oceanic climate countries. Heat waves have become more frequent, and more intense over land, across almost every area on Earth since the 1950s. Heat waves occur from climate change. Heat waves form when a high-pressure area in the upper atmosphere strengthens and remains over a region for several days up to several weeks. This traps heat near the earth's surface. It is usually possible to detect heat waves by using forec...
