It was named Death Valley during the winter of 1849 after a group of Jayhawkers decided to try and take a shortcut rather then follow the wagon train to San Bernardino. Great story of suffering and eventual rescue when two of the group walked to San Fernando valley, got a horse and a mule and came back to rescue them. The "Death Valley" moniker stuck, although it's reviled by many scientists.
We’ll see.. The hottest air temperature ever recorded in Death Valley (Furnace Creek) was 134°F (57°C) on July 10, 1913. During the heat wave that peaked with that record, five consecutive days reached 129° F (54°C) or above.
I was there in March on the last 89 degree day for many months. It’s beautiful. Not many EV chargers out there, but it’s still doable, has been for a few years now. Go between Thanksgiving-Mid March, it’s otherworldly. Why suffer in the heat? Summer is actually the worst time to travel.
I was in Arizona in 2012 on a boat ramp at Lake Powell. I told my friend who was from there that it felt a little hot outside. He laughed and told me it was 110 degrees. I told him it was much nicer than the midwest where the humidity was awful. Never once did the heat really bother me out west. I’ll take the desert over stifling humidity any day of the week.
Illinois resident here and lover of the desert, I cannot agree more. Been in Death Valley in the spring of 2013 and it was 114°F, didn't feel bad. It was hot, but not like the earth was coming to an end. You carry a case of water in the car at all times, if you are heading out, you carry a cooler with a 10lb bag of ice in it with the water.

130° F is WRONG. The official highest recorded temperature is now 56.7°C (134°F), which was measured on 10 July 1913 at Greenland Ranch, Death Valley, California, USA. Scientists disputing that do not count.
The Tonga Volcano pumped a huge amount of water vapor into the sky and it's going to take a decade or so more for it to clear. Until then there will be warmer weather. Calm down.
Except volcanos release sulphur dioxide into the plume that combines with water vapor to form sulfuric acid which invariably reflects solar radiation away from Earth's atmosphere. So if the Tongo eruption was large enough, we should see a little ice age here in no time.
@@MountainMetal or more accurately, a huge amount of water vapor led to a rapid production of sulfate aerosol particles that destroyed a large chunk of ozone. So much for my little ice age theory.
