The heat dome takes control.

These extreme temperatures come after the continued dominance of a heat dome over various regions of the Arab world. This is considered the primary factor in the formation of heat waves and unprecedented temperatures around the world. The heat dome acts as a heat trap between the upper and lower layers of the atmosphere, significantly increasing the heating of the Earth's surface, especially if it continues to dominate a particular region for an extended period.
