A Weather Documentary Narrator on the Most Extreme Place on Earth
The overnight low temperature in Death Valley once hit 107 degrees Fahrenheit.
That was the cool part of the day.
Death Valley sits 282 feet below sea level, ringed by mountains that trap heat like a furnace. In summer, the ground reaches 200 degrees. Hot enough to cook meat. The air shimmers. Asphalt bubbles.
In 2021, it recorded 130 degrees Fahrenheit. The hottest temperature on Earth in over a century.
Climate scientists don’t call Death Valley a warning anymore. They call it a forecast.
Death Valley has always been the most extreme place on Earth. The rest of the planet is catching up.
Death Valley is part of the National Park Service. You can find current conditions, temperature records, and visitor information at the Death Valley National Park official site.
