As it's uninhabited my usual criteria of liveability for a climate no longer apply IMO, so I'm going to give it an A+ for how impressive it is, even though we only have about seven years of data to go off. I wonder if it's susceptible to particularly high individual temperatures in the 125F+ range, or if it's as stable as perhaps the low daily/monthly range suggests? Also wondering about return periods between rain events and sun data.
If the numbers are right, then the summers are hotter than Death Valley. Maybe it a thermometer was still there it would break the world's hottest temperature record. Perhaps a weather junkie with lots of money could be convinced to fund a weather station there?
Did Dallol get abandoned because of the heat or the remoteness?
