Largest Thermometer

Want to see how ridiculously hot this summer has been? Drive to Baker, California and read the temperature on the worlds largest thermometer. The 134 foot tall gauge is housed near the gateway to Death Valley, where temperatures soared to 134 degrees in 1913. While its an electronic sign rather than an actual thermometer, its known as the biggest on the planet. Next time youre in the area, it might be fun to keep a frying pan and some eggs handy.
