#HeatDome to broil #WesternUS ahead of North American #monsoon
A new heat dome is building in the United States this week. This time it will focus on the West first, then shift toward the Midwest. Storms associated with the #NorthAmericanMonsoon will follow the heat in the West.
By Alex Sosnowski, Jul 7, 2026
Excerpt: "As the heat wave crests over the interior West, an annual phenomenon will take place. Moisture will begin to trickle in from Mexico at first, then pick up more steam later this week to next week. A surge in humidity levels, along with a flip of the breeze from the west to the south, is known as the North American monsoon.
" 'There should be a slow propagation of thunderstorm activity from south to north over the interior West that should start with spotty activity at first then become somewhat more widespread by next week,' Pastelok said.
" 'Helping that activity will be an eastward shift of the high-pressure heat dome,' AccuWeather Meteorologist Brandon Buckingham said. 'The circulation around the high will help to pump moisture in more freely over much of the West beginning this weekend and more so next week.'
"Many of the early storms over the Southwest may bring little or no rain but gusty #winds and #lightning strikes. The gusty winds can kick up considerable amounts of #dust, creating large #DustStorms or #haboobs. Lightning strikes with no rain can set off scores of new #wildfires, while gusty winds around the storms can fan the new fires and existing large blazes.
"The nature of the heat dome will trap smoke in the region, which can reduce the visibility, create a hazy or milky-looking sky and create #AirQuality dangers for some individuals. "

We survived Day 1 of the #HeatDome. Temps were in the low-90's and very humid. Living room was down to 77 with the portable A/C running for a couple of hours (mostly for the doggo, though we enjoyed it). The exhaust tube was getting a bit too hot for my comfort level, so now it's back to the fans. Tomorrow is supposed to be 100 F. I just watered both gardens -- nothing is wilting... yet. Used only collected #rainwater for watering. And bonus -- I salvaged a #Turmeric plant that was growing in a #Compost pile!

Deaths, disruptions across #Europe: What you should know about the #heatwave
Experts say the #ClimateCrisis is making Europe’s #heatwaves more frequent and more intense.
By Caolán Magee
Published On 24 Jun 202624 Jun 2026Excerpt: "What is causing the heatwave?
"Meteorologists said the extreme temperatures are driven by a heat dome, a vast area of high pressure that has become parked over Western Europe.
"The phenomenon is being sustained by what is known as an omega block, a weather pattern named for the Greek letter because of the similar shape it creates in the atmosphere.
"Under normal conditions, the jet stream carries weather systems from west to east. During an omega block, however, that flow becomes distorted, trapping a ridge of high pressure between two low-pressure systems.
"The result is that hot, stagnant air remains locked over the same region for days or even weeks. The UK Met Office said Britain currently lies on the boundary between the high-pressure system and cooler air to the northwest, which is creating sharp contrasts between hotter conditions in the south and east and cooler, wetter weather farther north."

Summerlike heat dome to send #Southwest temperatures soaring past 100 F
A strengthening #HeatDome will send temperatures soaring into the 90s and past 100 degrees across the Southwest, threatening records, accelerating snowmelt and raising #wildfire risk now, then #WaterSupply concerns later.
By Alex Sosnowski, AccuWeather senior meteorologist
Published Mar 13, 2026"Temperatures will climb well into the 90s, with some areas forecast to top 100 degrees Fahrenheit through next week. While those numbers may not seem extreme for the southwestern United States, they are running one to two months ahead of historical averages and could have implications for wildfire risk and water supplies across the interior Southwest later this year.
"A persistent area of high pressure at multiple levels of the atmosphere, known as a heat dome, will intensify in the coming days and may be slow to break down."
