∙ 11y agoThe coldest temperature in North America is often quoted as -63°C (-81°F) at Snag, Yukon, Canada on 1947-02-03. However, the United States Army Natick Laboratory left a thermometer at an elevation of about 15,000 feet (4,572 meters) on Mount McKinley, Alaska, U.S.A. from 1950 to 1969. The coldest temperature recorded was -100°F (-73°C). This is not only the coldest temperature recorded in North America, but the coldest temperature recorded in the Northern Hemisphere, beating the -67.7°C (-89.9°F) at Oymyakon, Russia on 1933-02-06.

However, that temperature was measured 3.5 feet (1.0668 meters) off the ground. Today, stations in the U.S.A. measure at 4 to 6 feet (1.2192 to 1.8288 meters) off the ground. According to the World Meteorological Organization, temperature should be measured 1.25 to 2 meters (which is approximately 4 feet, 1.2 inches to 6 feet, 6.7 inches) off the ground.
The hottest reliably measured temperature in North America and the world was 129.2�°F (54�°C) at Furnace Creek Ranch, Death Valley, California, U.S.A. on 30 June 2013.

The hottest air temperature ever reliably recorded in a desert was 134 degrees F in Death Valley of the Mojave Desert in California on July 10, 1913. An even warmer temperature of 136 degrees was recorded a few years later in Libya but that has been discounted as inaccurate as it was not properly measured by untrained Italian soldiers.

Anyone who has walked barefoot over an asphalt parking lot in summer can attest to that.So, the answer to your question is that the hottest temperature ever reliably recorded was in the southern part of the North American Continent.
