Ironically, coastal California is some of the most consistently pleasant weather in the world. It’s some deserts in the interior (like Death Valley which is where I’m sure that this temperature was recorded) that get really hot.

How tf was it hotter in BC than in Texas

You read that correctly: British Columbia (Canada) has been hotter than everywhere else in the USA (and Canada) aside from California, Nevada, Arizona, and New Mexico. That interior desert heat is real. And we love it (most of the time).

Would love to know, when as well.

I’m from Florida originally but now live in Ontario as a Canadian citizen. It’s interesting that the place I’m originally from and the place I currently live have the exact same record high temperatures despite being very different in climate.

British Columbia is higher than Texas, yes Texas!

Amazing that BC has a higher high than all but 3 US states.

Fun fact California has the highest recorded temperature in the world.

Fun fact, Montana’s record low was -70F/-56.7C, giving it the record for difference between extremes in the US at 187F/103.9C

OP, well played putting Freedom Degrees on the second image. I noticed the multiple-image icon, prayed, swiped, and was rewarded! Thank you for enabling my continued ignorance

As someone who is used to 120F, I cannot imagine 121F in British Columbia. What would that do to the fauna and flora of that area?

Labrador and Newfoundland at 107 is the big shocker to me.

California is a very diverse climate state man. If you are by the coast it’s probably the most pleasant weather (not too hot not too cold) during the summer months. Yet we have Death Valley in the desert.

I’ve lived long enough that I just know the conversion of C to F for common temps around weather. But when you try to make sense of the actual conversion it makes no fucking sense it my head.

Twas a freak occurrence in BC. Normally we have the best weather on the planet

I’ve been to Death Valley, it really feels inhospitable

California’s is a bit misleading, since it was taken in Death Valley, California. Out in the Mojave Desert . The hottest place on the planet.
I live on the coast of California. The daytime high temperature in the summer is consistently between. 22° and 24° C.
