Heat Domes 🔥The Science

The Science

Behind Heat Domes

Temperature records have been breaking all over, as our Earth registers some of the hottest periods ever measured. Correspondent David Pogue explains how a "heat dome" has been driving up temperatures, and how extreme heat is affecting residents of Phoenix, where there has been a rise in hospital admissions for heat stress.

Climate change refers to long-term shifts in temperatures and weather patterns, mainly caused by human activities, especially the burning of fossil fuels.

Comments

Excellent work as always, David. I live in the northern Midwest where the temperature rarely goes above 100 F but we are seeing the impact of global warming in the form of stronger thunderstorms producing larger and more damaging hail.  Earlier this year we got hail the size of a quarter and now I need a new roof.  All the local car dealers are selling hail damaged cars at reduced prices.  Outside of extremely rare tornadoes, we always considered ourselves safe from most natural disasters.  Now we are seeing that nature can hit in a wide variety of ways.

What Is Climate Change?
Climate change refers to long-term shifts in temperatures and weather patterns. Such shifts can be natural, due to changes in the sun’s activity or large volcanic eruptions. But since the 1800s, human activities have been the main driver of climate change, primarily due to the burning of fossil fuels like coal, oil and gas.
Burning fossil fuels generates greenhouse gas emissions that act like a blanket wrapped around the Earth, trapping the sun’s heat and raising temperatures.
The main greenhouse gases that are causing climate change include carbon dioxide and methane. These come from using gasoline for driving a car or coal for heating a building, for example. Clearing land and cutting down forests can also release carbon dioxide. Agriculture, oil and gas operations are major sources of methane emissions. Energy, industry, transport, buildings, agriculture and land use are among the main sectors causing greenhouse gases.

Politicians may still debate it but it’s getting harder and harder to deny with temperatures climbing to new heights everywhere something's going on out there.
David Pogue takes us to Phoenix where the heat is on the last eight years have been the hottest years  ever measured on the planet July was the hottest  month ever recorded July 6 was the hottest day all over the planet the heat broke temperature records including in Siberia 103 degrees more than half  the U.S population was subject to heat warnings  in July here in Phoenix Arizona the heat has broken all kinds of records including the longest streak of consecutive days where the temperature hit 110 degrees or hotter really cooking today in Phoenix 118 degrees I think tomorrow will be even hotter and it's not just the hot air that's  dangerous it's the surfaces this steering  wheel 162.5 this sidewalk is 144 Fahrenheit  that's hot enough to burn your dog's Paws in 60 seconds and this playground slide for children 182.8 degrees people say oh you live in Phoenix  it's a dry heat and honestly 100 105 is not bad but I want to stress very strongly nobody is  acclimated to 115 118 degrees more Troublesome  is the fact that the low temperature Melissa Guardaro is an extreme heat researcher at Arizona State University have there been in Phoenix hospitals a rise in admissions  absolutely the most number of Hospital admissions  for heat stress that we've ever had what can you tell us about the ways your life changes during a  heat wave like this so you don't work out Outdoors  at 11 o'clock you go and you hike at five or six  o'clock in the morning I actually have mittens in  my car so that when the steering wheel gets really  hot I put my mittens on and that's how I drive you  know you're living in a hot place when you have  to keep oven mitts in your glove compartment yeah  compartment because [Laughter] so why has so  much of the country been scorching for so long  well allow me to introduce that  breakout weather term of 2023  the heat Dome it's an area of high pressure  way up high that traps the warm air like the lid on a pot it traps the heat it stops rain from  moving in to cool us off and it just sits there  unfortunately not every area under the heat  Dome suffers equally you want to know who  gets the worst of it cities are where heat  comes to stay and comes to live Becca Benner is a director of climate issues at the nonprofit nature  conservancy cities on average are several degrees  warmer than the surrounding areas and just because  of so much pavement it tends to absorb heat better  and reflect heat better they call it the urban  heat island effect too much pavement not enough  trees and Greenery to cool things off the heat  island effect is worse in the poorer areas of our  cities where there aren't many trees and even  the bus stops don't always offer shade Carlos  Galves lives in Phoenix without air conditioning  electricity or even running water the thermometer  on his wall registers 109.
Are you able to sleep  in this heat if I sleep for half an hour then I'll lie awake for an hour after that because it's just  so hot do you have some tricks to stay cool  in here I drink a lot of water and twice a day I pour a bucket of water on myself and I just try to rest in the evening in Phoenix you can get free transportation to the city's 90 cooling centers but ever since he collapsed from the Heat last month Galves is worried about leaving  his house I'm afraid I could faint again if I go out during the day so I wait till the sun is going down to go out to get ice or water  even for people who have air conditioning not everyone can afford to use it the average bill for AC in Phoenix is over $450 a month   we have a group of people who have to make very difficult choices do I pay for air conditioning or do I pay for my rent this kind of heat wave is  bringing up all the chinks in the infrastructure last month President Biden announced some small steps toward adapting to dangerous heat like expanding access to drinking water improving  weather forecasts and setting up a heat alert system we should be protecting workers from  hazardous conditions and we will but Guardaro maintains that there's much more to be done city planners should develop heat infrastructure like  cooling centers and strategic Greenery and the federal government should start taking heat as   seriously as it treats other climate disasters FEMA has never declared extreme heat as a disaster  so flooding and hurricane all those things  can be designated Federal disaster areas but  not heat not Heat standing up more cooling centers  providing greater services for people no that is  not reimbursed by the government because there has  never been a FEMA extreme heat declared disaster which climate crisis disaster kills the most  people extreme heat is the climate disaster that  kills the most people in fact it kills more people  than all of the other disasters combined and we  kind of have a joke here that we show a picture  of before Heat Wave and then we show a picture  after a heat wave and it's the same picture and  that's part of the problem because people see  tornadoes and houses are upended and hurricanes and trees and utility poles and it's this Invisible Killer so it sounds like heat among the  various climate disasters does not get enough love  from the media and the government it absolutely  does not get enough love of course heat waves  aren't the only result of the warming Planet heat  also dries out vegetation and we get fires heat evaporates the land so we get droughts heat  evaporates the oceans so we get hurricanes the nature conservancy's Becca Benner cautions us  not to think of this Summer's heat as something  freakish and rare it's the new normal it is no  longer a future threat we are living this now so whether your basement just flooded whether you  just had to evacuate for a fire whether it's too  hot for you to go outside and enjoy yourself that  means we are now experiencing some of the impacts  of climate change we have to reduce emissions  and we have to do it immediately and faster.

Summer 🌞 Solstice

On June 21, the sun will be directly overhead at the Tropic of Cancer - signaling the LONGEST DAYLIGHT for the Northern Hemisphere.
The day of the June Summer Solstice has the longest daylight in the Northern Hemisphere and the shortest in the Southern Hemisphere. It’s Winter Solstice for those in the south and most of Antarctica also do not receive any sunlight during this time.

Juneteenth 🤸🏾‍♀️ Freedom Day 🎂

Juneteenth

Juneteenth, officially Juneteenth National Independence Day, is a federal holiday in the United States. It is celebrated annually on June 19 to commemorate the ending of slavery in the United States. 

The holiday's name is a portmanteau of the words "June" and "nineteenth", as it was on June 19, 1865, when Major General Gordon Granger ordered the final enforcement of the Emancipation Proclamation in Texas at the end of the American Civil War.

Early celebrations date back to 1866, at first involving church-centered community gatherings in Texas. They spread across the South amongst newly freed African American slaves and their descendants and became more commercialized in the 1920s and 1930s, often centering on a food festival. Participants in the Great Migration brought these celebrations to the rest of the country. During the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s, these celebrations were eclipsed by the nonviolent determination to achieve civil rights, but grew in popularity again in the 1970s with a focus on African-American freedom and African-American arts. Beginning with Texas by proclamation in 1938, and by legislation in 1979, every U.S. state and the District of Columbia has formally recognized the holiday in some way. 

Juneteenth is also celebrated by the Mascogos, descendants of Black Seminoles who escaped from slavery in 1852 and settled in Coahuila, Mexico.

The day was recognized as a federal holiday in 2021, when President Joe Biden signed the Juneteenth National Independence Day Act into law. Juneteenth became the first new federal holiday since Martin Luther King Jr. Day was adopted in 1983.

 

Celebrations and traditions
The holiday is considered the "longest-running African-American holiday" and has been called "America's second Independence Day." Juneteenth falls on June 19 and has often been celebrated on the third Saturday in June. Historian Mitch Kachun considers that celebrations of the end of slavery have three goals: "to celebrate, to educate, and to agitate". 

Traditions include public readings of the Emancipation Proclamation which promised freedom, singing traditional songs such as "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot" and "Lift Every Voice and Sing", and reading of works by noted African-American writers, such as Ralph Ellison and Maya Angelou. Celebrations include picnics, rodeos, street fairs, cookouts, family reunions, park parties, historical reenactments, blues festivals, and Miss Juneteenth contests. Red food and drinks are traditional during the celebrations, including red velvet cake and strawberry soda, with red meant to represent resilience and joy.

 

The Black Seminoles of Nacimiento in Mexico hold a festival and reunion, known as el Día de los Negros on June 19. Many former British colonies celebrate Emancipation Day on August 1, commemorating the Slavery Abolition Act of 1833. Since 2021, the United Nations has designated August 31 as the International Day for People of African Descent.

History
On September 22, 1862, President Abraham Lincoln announced that the Emancipation Proclamation would go into effect on January 1, 1863, promising freedom to enslaved people in all of the rebellious parts of Southern states of the Confederacy including Texas. Enforcement of the Proclamation generally relied upon the advance of Union troops. Texas, as the most remote state of the former Confederacy, had seen an expansion of slavery because the presence of Union troops was low as the American Civil War ended; thus, the enforcement of the Emancipation Proclamation had been slow and inconsistent there prior to Granger's order.

Opal Lee is a huge reason Juneteenth is a federal holiday. In 2016 she walked from Fort Worth, Texas to D.C., 2.5M a day, to symbolize the 2.5 years it took news to reach the remaining slaves in Texas that they were free. She was 89. She walked 1400 miles hoping to make Juneteenth a federal holiday.

She tried again in 2019 to make the walk but it was cut short by covid (I can't even do any math on how long this walk must take for her).

Last summer, Biden signed the bill making Juneteenth a federal holiday with her in attendance.

She walked 2.5M last year on Juneteenth. But she doesn't have to walk all the way to D.C. ever again.

 

President Joe Biden signed the Juneteenth National Independence Day Act into law, June 17, 2021

Today’s video Google Doodle, illustrated by Los Angeles-based guest artist Loveis Wise and narrated by actor and activist LeVar Burton, honors the 155th anniversary of Juneteenth. 
Short for “June Nineteenth,” Juneteenth marks the true end of chattel slavery across the United States - which didn’t actually occur until 1865, two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation. 

Specifically, it marks the day when enslaved Black people in Galveston, Texas (one of the westernmost points in the Confederate South) finally received news of their liberation.

Happy Juneteenth

Le Juneteenth (une combinaison de June, le mois de juin, et nineteenth, soit l’adjectif dix-neuvième en anglais), officiellement le Juneteenth National Independence Day, également connu sous le nom de jour de la Liberté (Freedom Day), jour de l'Émancipation (Emancipation Day), ou encore jour du Jubilé (Jubilee Day) est une fête nationale et jour férié aux États-Unis célébré le 19 juin. La fête est officielle dans l'État américain du Texas depuis 1980 et un jour férié national depuis juin 2021. Le Juneteenth symbolise l'émancipation des esclaves afro-américains au Texas et plus généralement à travers tout le Sud confédéré. 

 

De façon plus précise, elle commémore l’annonce par le général nordiste Gordon Granger des ordres fédéraux proclamés le 19 juin 1865 à Galveston, au Texas, qui ont libéré tous les esclaves du Texas.

Quelque deux ans et demi auparavant, la proclamation d'émancipation du président Abraham Lincoln avait rendu illégal l’esclavage au Texas, de même que dans les autres États américains en rébellion contre l'Union. La mise en application de la proclamation reposait généralement sur les avancées militaires des troupes nordistes. Étant donné que le Texas était l’un des États esclavagistes les plus éloignés du Nord, on n’y trouvait qu’une faible présence de troupes nordistes à la fin de la guerre de Sécession ; dès lors, la mise en application y avait été plus lente et sporadique qu'ailleurs. Bien qu'on répète souvent que Juneteenth célèbre la fin de l'esclavage aux États-Unis, la pratique s'est maintenue dans deux États de l'Union (le Delaware et le Kentucky) jusqu'au 6 décembre 1865, lorsqu’a été ratifié le treizième amendement de la Constitution des États-Unis, qui abolissait l'esclavage non pénal à l’échelle de la nation tout entière.
