It is a specific weather phenomenon called Heat Dome.

    With what's happening in the UK would that also be a heat dome? I only ask because that page says that it prevents precipitation but over here we've had hailstones 3 times and rain a whole bunch in very short bursts but once it stops it's dried up before the end of the hour and it's just as if not hotter than before.
