I don't think there's a state in the western half of the US that doesn't have at least one wildfire burning. Montana has lost over 900k acres to fires. Even if you don't have fire in your area, you're still dealing with the smoke...
The highest confirmed and substantiated temperature is 134.1° F in Death Valley in 1913. Even that reading is contentious and may be reviewed and stricken from the record.
The are some alleged reports of readings as high as 189° F and 152.2° F, but those are unsubstantiated and not recognised.
