An unprecedented ‘heat dome’ is hovering over Texas, setting record high temperatures (up to 125ºF), imposing dangerously high heat indexes, and threatening an overstretched power grid. The heat dome is an atmospheric condition resulting from the interaction between high- and low-pressure systems, amid anomalous jet stream patterns.
