When tourists visit las vegas during the summer, a Valley National park. Because its not hot enough here. [laughter] its sometimes referred to the land of extremes because temperatures can reach in the 120s or more, nothing to mess with. Gerard ramalho joins us more. The hottest temperature ever recorded was in death valley. That was 134 degrees. Now, park Officials Say the intense heat is part of the appeal for tourists, but it can also be deadly. Its a beauty that should a summer sunrise in death valley, not only lights up the unique landscape but also signals the dawn of what will be another day of unrivaled heat. Quite often, that temperature will be at 120, 125. Four of the summers weve hit 129. . Much of the land here is scorched by the sun, wind blown and yet, like clock work during there are unusual signs of leaf. Leaf of life. Tourists, lots of them. The Largest National park in the united states, not in alaska. They come from all parts of the world. Just the nature. To see the sites and experience the heat. Its very hot. The primary place of lodging in death valley is booked solid a year in advance. We are an oasis in the middle of the desert. Clark davis manages the Furnace Creek resort less than a mile away from the park Visitors Center. Its a beautiful place year around. Be safe around smart about it. Unfortunately, too many are not. Death valley averages one heatrelated death per year. Exhausttion, even stroke. Conditions are unrelenting and it doesnt take long for things to spiral out of control. You run out of water, your heart races, the dizziness sets in. Maybe you see black spots and suddenly, it all stops. Its what happened to this actor. He was hik area. The coroners said his body was partially decomposed and may have been lying in the tripledigit temperatures for days. The intense heat has claimed scores of victims including some well aware of the dangers. We lost an employee in 2013 to heatcaused death. Abbey wine, the park manager, said the hot son does not discriminate, yet, its that million shifters visitors to the park every year. We encountered an alltogether different type of being. Marshall is known as ultramarathoners, considered the most extreme foot race in the world, the ultramarathon begins in Bad Water Basin at 280 feet below sea the lowest spot in north america. The day we were there, it was 123 degrees. They run, walk walk, do whatever it takes. Some will even climb to the peak at more than 14,500 feet. Why do they do it . You know, you look at this topography out here, the its very soothing. I feel like i can connect with it. The answer might be different for others. But we, too, understood the appeal. Will you do it again . No. This is it. I said that last year. I think this is it. Im 65 years old. For marshall, it may be his last desert tour. But as surely as the sunburns bright here, others will follow in his steps. And so visitors and tours are from tour. When they take their holiday, it is in the summer months between july and august. And Something Else people dont realize is that theres literally no Cell Phone Service out there and there are all of these things to see. But unless you are at the Visitors Center or at that resort that we showed you, you are not gonna get any signal. Hurry. I would like to wait until late october. Or the spring when theres a bloom which happens occasionally. Thats when i went. It was earlier this year. Absolutely gorgeous and it was packed then. In the summer, you cant get a room at that resort. Its full. Thats the way it is. People like it hot. Thank you. Well, warmer out here, i guess, when we compare it to death valley. Well take 105 over 130 any track of the temperatures but the smoke as well. You bet. And i like how people connect to the death valley rocks when its 130 degrees.

Javier has been joined by some of the moisture caribbean. It went through mexico. Its reformed. It does appear as if that moisture is gonna coming up to the territory southwest. To the desert southwest. Areas of that line dry. Thats where the thunderstorms will fire up. Any wobble in this line will give a petter chance for thunderstorms to the valley, on wednesday i think our chances are minimum. 79 in pahrump and boulder city. Overton, 104. Laughlin, 106. 98 in sandy valley and death valley, 115. Our valley, the breezes will back off. Tomorrow the breezes come from the south and will bring in the humidity. 104, the high.
