Temperature Range: The temperature of the Earth's crust ranges considerably. At its outer edge, where it meets the atmosphere, the crust's temperature is the same temperature as that of the air. So, it might be as hot as 35 Â°C in the desert and below freezing in Antarctica. On average, the surface of the Earth's crust experiences temperatures of about 14Â°C.
