Heatwaves will likely become more and more frequent, especially in urban centres. the risk tends to be higher. A big United Nations climate report The report, released in August, warned that nations are delaying curbing fossil fuel emissions so long that they can no longer prevent global warming from intensifying over the next 30 years, leading to more frequent life-threatening heat waves and severe droughts.

Generally, heat waves pose the greatest danger to people in areas known for colder weather, where some homes, community centers and libraries lack air conditioning. Outside of Greece, there have been deadly heatwaves in several places in recent months, including: Pacific Northwest and British Columbia with record-breaking temperatures helped spread a forest fire This destroyed much of a small town in Western Canada.

Storms – like Tropical Storm HenriThis week brought blackouts and record rain to the Northeast—names have been given for at least several hundred years, with 16th-century cyclones in the Caribbean named after saints such as Tropical Storm San Roque in 1508 and Hurricane San Francisco in 1526 by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. According to a research article published by The U.S. National Hurricane Center officially began naming tropical storms using only female names in 1953, and in 1978, Eastern North Pacific began to include both male and female names in storm charts.

The National Hurricane Center said using short, easy-to-remember names instead of latitude-longitude identification methods can reduce confusion when there are several tropical storms at once. For example, if one tropical storm is in the Gulf of Mexico and the other is in the Northeast, Grace and Henry This week, using different names can reduce instances of ignoring a warning, thinking it’s referring to a distant storm.

England also names storms. The national meteorological service, the Met Office, began implementing it six years ago, and said the naming makes it easier to forward emergency notifications about inclement weather.

Experts say that the same logic applies to heat waves, although it is not so easy to classify, as a heat wave in one place may not create a heat wave in another. Eleni Myrivili, Athens’ newly appointed heat chief, said: scientists and officials were discussing ways to make it easier for policymakers to put preventive emergency measures in their proper places., including the naming of heat waves.

One downside is that if too many weather events have names, the message can get lost, said Suzana J. Camargo, assistant professor in Columbia University’s Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences. “I think it’s a nice tool to have and it makes sense if it’s a big event, but I’m worried if they start naming every little thing because it’s losing the power it has,” he said.
