Ya, 55.0°C in Kebili in 1931 are also valid... What a joke!

After a lot of effort, investigation, and the incomparable help of @extremetemps and Jerome from Geoclimat, I managed to create a worldwide ranking of the highest temperatures ever recorded; all of them reliable and verified.
RT helps a lot to spread and clarify this information
