  <IMG src="http://www.cool-off.com/images/dhbtsb8r_788chm4fdh8.jpg" id="vhab" />You've
  heard the expression "It's so hot I could fry an egg on the sidewalk." That's
  pretty hot: Eggs need to reach 144 to 158 degrees Fahrenheit before they'll
  turn from a liquid to a solid. And the
  <A href="http://wmo.asu.edu/world-highest-temperature">highest temperature on
  earth</A> saw the mercury hit 136°F (57.8°C).Of course, that was a measure of
  the air temperature at about five feet above ground. Surface temperatures are
  higher, by as much as 20 degrees. So maybe egg frying isn't entirely out of
  the question.

  The highest temperature recorded was logged on September 13, 1922 in El
  Azizia, Libya.Libya, the fourth largest state in Africa, is located close to
  the equator. Libya consists almost entirely of desert. With no natural
  barriers to speak of, Libya's climate is greatly influenced by the desert to
  the south and the Mediterranean Sea to the north. A scorching wind called the
  <A href="http://suncompass.fandom.tv/meteorology.htm">Ghibli</A> can raise the
  temperatures in a matter of hours.
