A heat dome is a sprawling area of high pressure that promotes hot and dry conditions for days or weeks at a time. "Heat domes are a lot like a balloon," AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Alan ...
The "dryness fraction", x, gives the fraction by mass of gaseous water in the wet region, the remainder being droplets of liquid. An enthalpy–entropy chart , also known as the H – S chart or Mollier diagram , plots the total heat against entropy, [ 1 ] describing the enthalpy of a thermodynamic system . [ 2 ]

Heat map generated from DNA microarray data reflecting gene expression values in several conditions A heat map showing the RF coverage of a drone detection system. A heat map (or heatmap) is a 2-dimensional data visualization technique that represents the magnitude of individual values within a dataset as a color.
The wet-bulb globe temperature (WBGT) is a measure of environmental heat as it affects humans. Unlike a simple temperature measurement, WBGT accounts for all four major environmental heat factors: air temperature, humidity, radiant heat (from sunlight or sources such as furnaces), and air movement (wind or ventilation).

“Very dry conditions combined with these winds is leading to an environment favorable for wildfire growth, especially for western portions of the Southern Plains,” the weather service said ...
A surface weather analysis for the United States on October 21, 2006. By that time, Tropical Storm Paul was active (Paul later became a hurricane). Surface weather analysis is a special type of weather map that provides a view of weather elements over a geographical area at a specified time based on information from ground-based weather stations.
The Earth is on track to experience another record-breaking summer, with temperatures soaring into the triple digits around the globe. In the U.S., over 140 million people were under extreme heat ...
