Death Valley is breaking records and living up to reputation this week
According to the NPS this thermometer at furnace creek tends to be a couple degrees hotter that the official weather center, because of it proximity to the concrete, but dang that is hot. If it stands as official it will break the records from 1913 that are often questioned as accurate. And make yesterdays 130 mark seem a bit cool???
If you are headed to Death Valley bring water an maybe an extra set of tires, How hot is too hot to drive on pavement?
