What was the highest midnight temperature ever recorded on Earth?

Answer 1

I'm not sure if records are kept on such things, but it's probably about 50C or 120F. Consider that just last week Death Valley had a high temperature on July 6 of 129F and a low the next morning of 96F. I'd guess the high temperature occurred relatively late, perhaps 6pm, so there were only 6 hours for it to cool off until midnight, and the first couple hours of cooling are usually pretty slow, so it was probably still 115F or so at midnight. The all time world high temperature is 7 degrees warmer than the high that day, so it probably would have made the midnight temperature warmer too. Sorry I can't find the actual hourly statistics for DV, I'm sure they're archived somewhere.

Answer 2

This debate can go on for years but to my mind global warming is a myth, this is a normal planetary cycle, and you are correct to question the facts. I live on the coast and with everything that is suppose to be happening with the icecaps melting and sea levels rising, I should be underwater by now by my feet are dry and the tide has come no further over the last couple of years. Also its fair to note that there is evidence of warming on a global scale on Mars, this planet has no cows, no aerosoles, no factories, and all the vehicles that have been on it have been electric. Work that one out.
