People across the Northern Hemisphere are having to cope with scorching temperatures as heat waves grip three continents.

California&#039;s Death Valley is known for its scorching summer heat. The mercury there hit a sizzling 56 degrees on Sunday.

Climate expert Nakamura Hisashi of Tokyo University said that when the westerly jet stream meanders north, high-pressure systems linger, bringing hot weather. Nakamura noted that when that northward drift persists, abnormally high temperatures occur.
                
Nakamura believes climate change is partly to blame for the raging heat. He said the &quot;entire troposphere&quot; has warmed up due to the impact of climate change, triggering abnormal temperatures that can only be described as &quot;unprecedented&quot; or &quot;record-breaking.&quot;
