Scourging and sweltering heat in the highest degree can put one’s
health at risk if one could not able to withstand it.
Recently, almost close to the recorded hottest place in earth
which is 56.7 degree Celsius or 134.1 degree Fahrenheit on Death Valley USA – a
new hottest place on earth is recorded. The heat records 54.4 degree Celsius or
130 degree Fahrenheit. That place is not
very surprising because that place is also the place that records the highest
temperature or the hottest place on earth. Obviously, that is the Death Valley
also in United States.
Death Valley hold much of the record of highest temperature as BBC
said in their article,quoted below.
“Sunday's reading was recorded
in Furnace Creek in Death Valley. Before this, the highest temperature reliably
recorded on Earth was 129.2F (54C) - also in Death Valley in 2013. A higher
reading of 134F, or 56.6C a century earlier, also in Death Valley, is disputed.
It is believed by some modern weather experts to have been erroneous, along
with several other searing temperatures recorded that summer.” (BBC)
“According to the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), the highest registered air temperature on Earth was
56.7 °C (134.1 °F) in Furnace Creek Ranch, California,
located in the Death Valley desert in
the United States, on 10 July 1913, but the validity of this record is
challenged as possible problems with the reading have since been discovered.”
