It's the "it" term for heat waves these days, even if it's not the most apt description in some cases.

The hidden ways heat threatens pets, children, and older adults » Yale Climate Connections Each group faces danger for reasons that most people overlook.

Your dog can’t sweat. Your baby can’t ask for water. Your elderly neighbor might not know they’re overheating.

Extreme heat is deadly – and not in the same way for everyone.

The marine heat wave in the North Pacific is one of the most extensive, spanning the giant N Pacific, and in spots, the most intense, I’ve observed. Anomalies near Japan are 15 F (8C) above normal. (Japan just recorded its hottest temp on record.)
The reason for this N Pacific heat wave is… 1/

Sorry Jeff. @extremetemps.bsky.social does not think that this record is valid.

July 2025 temperature ranking compared to all Julys since 1895. Can anyone east of the Mississippi River confirm that it was warm?

From www.france24.com/en/tv-shows/...: “Iran’s capital Tehran risks running out of water in weeks. It is the culmination of a five-year drought and decades of mismanagement. The government is pleading with citizens to restrict water use and has shut down offices and schools to combat the crisis.”

It was D.C.'s most humid July in over 90 years. What will August bring? Heat and humidity will surge back after a delightful start.

Goodbye, July — don’t let the dew point hit you on the way out.

It was D.C.'s most humid July in over 90 years (maybe ever).

Will August be any better? Here's our outlook: 🌡️💦

15 sources of wildfire smoke forecasts for North America » Yale Climate Connections Forecasting wildfire smoke is hard. We review the best tools to help you predict when unhealthful levels of smoke are coming.

We now live in the Pyrocene, a proposed new geologic epoch of fire activity brought about by human-caused climate change. Living in the Pyrocene means a new reality: knowing what the latest wildfire smoke forecasts are, in order to plan your outdoor activities. I review the best tools to do so:
