Not really though
from NPS:
I think the dinosaur moment would be more of a global phenomenon, e.g., rising ocean temperature. My understanding is that Death Valley is obscenely hot with or without humans. The rising ocean temperature and melting ice caps, on the other hand...🦖🌎💥
There's doubt about that 1913 temperature being reliable. More likely the 130°F in July 2021 is the actual record.
Also, what's remarkable is not the record high temperature, but the fact that these temperatures are consistently returning each year.
Not even Death Valley is spared by global warming.
