Death Valley to reach 126 F this Weekend

Excessive heat is expected this weekend, with temperatures reaching up to 126°F! While this isn’t close to the highest temperature recorded in the world (set on this day here in 1913 at 134°F), visitors should still take precautions when visiting the park.
Plan on seeing most of the park from the cool breeze of your car’s air conditioning! Drink plenty of water, and bring extra water in your vehicle. Hiking isn’t recommended at low elevation, even in the morning–the low temperatures are forecasted at around 97°F.
