<P> Christopher C. Burt , the weather historian writing for Weather Underground who shepherded the Libya reading 's 2012 disqualification , believes that the 1913 Death Valley reading is `` a myth '' , and is at least 2.2 or 2.8 ° C ( 4 or 5 ° F ) too high . Burt proposes that the highest reliably recorded temperature on Earth could be at Death Valley , but is instead 54.0 ° C ( 129.2 ° F ) recorded on 30 June 2013 . 53.9 ° C ( 129.0 ° F ) was recorded another four times : 20 July 1960 , 18 July 1998 , 20 July 2005 , and 7 July 2007 . On 21 July 2016 , Mitribah in Kuwait also recorded a maximum temperature of 54.0 ° C ( 129.2 ° F ) , tying Death Valley 's highest reliably recorded temperature on Earth , while Basra in Iraq reached 53.9 ° C ( 129.0 ° F ) that day . On 29 June 2017 , the air at the airport of Ahvaz in Iran reached 54.0 ° C ( 129.2 ° F ) as well . In a second part to his analysis , he gave a list of 11 other occasions in which temperatures of 52.8 ° C ( 127.0 ° F ) or more were reliably measured as well as the highest reliably measured temperatures on each continent . </P>
