The previous record was 119, which was set in 2006. NOAA said the 10 warmest Augusts have all occurred since 1998 and the five warmest Augusts have occurred since 2015. Europe, Asia and the Caribbean saw their warmest January through August yet. Death Valley reached the highest temperature ever reliably measured on Earth: 130 degrees Fahrenheit. It wasn't long after that when Woodland Hills in southern California set a record temperature of 121 degrees in early September, the "highest official temperature ever recorded in L.A. County," according to the National Weather Service.
