Study says since 1979 climate change has made heat waves last longer, spike hotter, hurt more people

Children play with water at a fountain during a heatwave, at Stavros Niarchos foundation Cultural Center in Athens, July 21, 2023.

"This paper sends a clear warning that climate change makes heat waves yet more dangerous in more ways than one," said Lawrence Berkeley National Lab climate scientist Michael Wehner, who wasn't part of the research. The study also looks at the changes in weather patterns that propagate heat waves. Atmospheric waves that move weather systems along, such as the jet stream, are weakening, so they are not moving heat waves along as quickly -- west to east in most but not all continents, Zhang said.
