How is the jet stream connected to the simultaneous heat waves of the entire globe?

Image
The deadly heat waves that raged in Europe, the United States, and China this month and caused transportation disruptions have one thing in common: a unique form of jet stream called “wavenumber 5.” Scientists are competing to understand whether the fast-moving air bands that control mid-latitude weather are changing in ways that make heat waves more frequent and persistent. Paul Williams, a professor of atmospheric science at the University of Reading in the United Kingdom, said: “Jet streams are the main driving force for our weather. Jet streams are like conveyor belts, causing storms one after another.” It also resembles the shape of the Greek letter omega, so it can also generate heat waves when it is formed into a U-shape called an “omega block”. Currently, a global pattern of five large waves orbits the world, with simultaneous heat waves across the continent. This pattern, known as wavenumber 5, can last for weeks and causes the hot regions to remain hot for extended peri
