The highest recorded temperature was 58 ºC (136.4 ºF), in Libya in 1922. In some areas, the summer temperature regularly exceeds 50ºC during the day, only to fall to near freezing 0ºC at night.
Clarification:
Scientists have thrown out the 1922 temperature reading as it was taken improperly by untrained technicians.
