Temperature 51 degrees ?????

[Ray1951]

I read a post from a fellow Forum member on Facebook saying that it was 51 degrees in the square in Fethiye.
Some people have disputed the fact that it gets this hot so is the temperature reader wrong?  How hot is it?

Ive been in Fethiye previously in August when its been 54 and my husbands flip flops melted.

Yes it is possible... Its horrendous....

I've been there when it was 50+ degrees, spent most of the time indoors with ac on, only coming out in evenings, which wasn't very much cooler

Also been there in 55. One day I bought eggs from a village lady. When I cracked them open to make OH an omelette they were all like lightly boiled lol!

Our thermometer hit 55 a couple of times in Kaya. Bear in mind though that it's at least a couple of degrees cooler up there than in Fethiye.

Thermometer in reception of The Oykun in June. Outside temperature is shown in bottom left.

That's because it's measured in the sun.
Tempurature should always be measured in the shade.

Yes, absolutely, true temperature is always in the shade...........

Yes I am aware of that.

But Ray1951 asked about the temperature in the sun which is why I posted a thermometer showing the temperature in the sun.

Simple.
