The article could be improved by adding a section on the cause of the heat wave. Most heat waves are connected to persistent high pressure zones or ridges over land.

== Contradiction? ==

[[2015 Indian heat wave#Background]] says "Every year India experiences severe heat waves in summer." But [[2015 Indian heat wave#Causes]] says (of the heat wave) "The trend is uncommon in India." It looks like these statements contradict each other, but I'm not sure how to change/what to remove. –[[User:GlottalFricative|GlottalFricative]] ([[User talk:GlottalFricative|talk]]) 20:10, 28 May 2015 (UTC)

Cause?

The article could be improved by adding a section on the cause of the heat wave. Most heat waves are connected to persistent high pressure zones or ridges over land. Surely, there must be meteorological reports that could fill in the blanks. — QuicksilverT @ 00:26, 28 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Done! Well, to the best of my ability. The section could probably use some expansion. GlottalFricative (talk) 04:28, 28 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Contradiction?

2015 Indian heat wave#Background says "Every year India experiences severe heat waves in summer." But 2015 Indian heat wave#Causes says (of the heat wave) "The trend is uncommon in India." It looks like these statements contradict each other, but I'm not sure how to change/what to remove. –GlottalFricative (talk) 20:10, 28 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
