A high temperature of 136° F (57.8° C) was recorded by a meteorological station in El Azizia, Lybia on September 13, 1922. It is quite likely that higher temperatures were reached at uninhabited locations in the desert hundreds of miles away, at the same time. It is also quite likely that this temperature has been exceeded many times since then in many places on Earth where we do not have meteorological instruments. That's why those places are uninhabited...

The highest temperature ever recorded in the United States was 134°F on July 10, 1913 in Death Valley, California. That is also the highest temperature ever recorded in the Western Hemisphere.
