Extreme temperatures refer to conditions that are significantly higher or lower than the average temperature for a specific region. These can occur during heatwaves, where temperatures soar above normal, or during cold snaps, when frigid air causes temperatures to plummet. Such extremes can impact weather patterns, ecosystems, and human activities. In addition to affecting daily life, extreme temperatures can lead to health risks, such as heat exhaustion or hypothermia. They can also strain energy resources, as people use more heating or cooling. Understanding and preparing for these conditions is essential for safety and well-being in the face of climate change.
