Here is the weather forecast for Shandi, Sudan one of the hottest locations on Earth. During 5-6 months, high temperatures soar around 45 °C - 46 °C :




Remind you we are currently in March, and this isn't the hottest month at all.

Different sites are giving different forecasts for that city you mentioned in Sudan. It's best to go with the WMO's climate data or the countries meteorological agency (if it has one) as they are the most reliable.

I asked some people and they told me Wunderground site was a very reliable site of weather forecasts in any part of the world. In Fact, I've just checked the forecast again for the same place, and it's a bit different but still, it remains in the 44 - 46 °C range. I've also checked the full forecast for this week for Dallol, Ethiopia and it will be between 41 and 44 °C.

Screenshoots :

The greatest number of consecutive days with a maximum temperature of 100 °F (38 °C) or above was 154 days in the summer of 2001. The summer of 1996 had 40 days over 120 °F (49 °C), and 105 days over 110 °F (43 °C). The summer of 1917 had 52 days where the temperature reached 120 °F (49 °C) or above with 43 of them consecutive.

Dallol is definitely not 100% accurate, but those are pretty much the average temperatures there at this time of the year. Though the 1960-66 average high for March was 38.9C, it might just have gotten hotter. What site is that by the way. It'd be interesting to see the June-August forecasts there

Dallol, and several places in Chad and Sudan are the hottest places on Earth at this time of the year.

This site is the Weather Channel, it's as accurate as Wunderground. Yeah, it might be interesting to see the temperatures during the summertime over there. Currently, the hottest places on Earth are found throughout the Sahel, especially in Mali, Chad and Sudan.

Thanks. For the meantime it is the Sahel that's very hot. But in May and June, Dallol will be the hottest place, Death Valley in July, and then Kuwait in August and September.

I improved the document and colour coded the highs so its easier to see. Orange indicates 40-44.9C and red indicates 45C or above, which only 4 places see. Well now it isn't uploading so damn

Yeah, I agree with you for the hottest places in summer but don't forget places in the heart of the Algerian Desert such as Adrar and In Salah that get very hot in July and August.
However, it seems the hottest place in the Sahara Desert during the summetime is a remote desert village in Algeria called Bou Bernous, which seems to have an average high temperature of about 47 °C in July (I'm not really sure of the reliability). Here the PDF source, go to page 6 to see the graph of temperatures for that location : http://www.geo.uu.nl/tsrp/Ontbrekend...and%20cold.pdf

For your document, can you eventually make a screenshoot, please?
