In July 2018, recordable hot weather is recorded all over the world, and in Japan it is reported that the highest temperature close to 40 degrees has been recorded and many people were carried by heatstroke, and in addition to Europe, Wildfire caused by extremely hot weather in various places has caused serious damage. Meanwhile, in Death Valley located in central California state in the United States, it was reported that in July 2018 the world record "The average temperature of one month is 42.3 degrees " is expected to be established.

Death Valley is a dry basin in the northern part of the Mojave Desert and is also known as the world's highest temperature recorded by the world meteorological authority " 56.7 degrees " in 1913. Death Valley, sometimes called "the hottest place in the world", has recorded the world's highest monthly mean temperature of "the average monthly temperature is 41.8 degrees" in July 2017, It will be updated. The "average monthly temperature of Death Valley is 42.3 degrees" is a prediction based on the data until July 30, 2018 to the last, but it seems that there is almost no doubt that the update of the world record is almost certain.

Looking at Death Valley's temperature graph observed in July 2018, there are as many as 5 days the highest temperature exceeds 125 degrees Fahrenheit (51.7 degrees Celsius), 80 degrees Fahrenheit (26.6 degrees Celsius) even in the lowest temperature of July, It is over. The average temperature of the day is wormwood between 100 degrees Fahrenheit (37 degrees Celsius) and 115 degrees Fahrenheit (46 degrees Celsius) and continues to record average temperatures well beyond Japan's maximum temperature as every day It seems.

Worldwide, the area where death valley and high temperature can do a good match is about the region including the Persian Gulf to the Arabian Peninsula, and southern Iraq to southwestern Iran and Pakistan. According to the data of July 2018, it seems that the average monthly temperature has exceeded 104 degrees F (40 degrees C) at some stations in Kuwait and Iran, but it was not enough to update the records of Death Valley .

Meteorologist Brian Bretszchneider points out several reasons for the question "Why is Death Valley unlikely to be hot?"

◆ 1: The temperature gets higher worldwide, there are many places near the north latitude and 30 degrees south latitude In the vicinity of this, descending air current is likely to occur, so cloud formation is likely to be disturbed, so the world Most of the desert is concentrated near the north latitude or 30 degrees south latitude. Death Valley is located near 36 degrees north and it is in a place where it is very hot.

◆ 2: The altitude of Death Valley is lower than the sea level . Bress schneider explains that the lower the altitude, the higher the barometric pressure, the more air pressure is compressed and the insulating property, which makes it warmer.

◆ 3: Being a desert <br> Death Valley is located in the north of the Mojave desert, and contains little moisture on the ground. Most of the sun's heat is lost as the heat of vaporization that evaporates the moisture on the surface but most of the solar energy can be used for warming the ground because there is no heat of vaporization in the desert.

◆ 4: It does not rain <br> Death Valley is located in the eastern part of the Sierra Nevada Mountains , and the moist air that would otherwise flow into Death Valley and let rain down will be obstructed by the Mountain Range. Therefore, in Death Valley, rainfall is small, it is said that it is the most dry area in the USA.

As described above, various factors overlap, and Death Valley is becoming a world-famous hot summer zone, Mr. Brezschneider explained.
