In 2021, North America experienced one of the deadliest heatwaves in history. The heatwave was caused by a high-pressure system called a “heat dome” which traps hot air like a cap. To what extent the heat dome has contributed to the heatwave and whether the heat dome will continue to affect such harsh heatwaves are of great concern to both the public and the scientific community.
