The average temperature in Antarctica is a chilling -49 degrees C. Therefore it is 49 degrees under freezing point that is 0 degrees C. The average mean temperature of Antarctica in summer is 0F and winter is 70F.
The temperature of Antarctica varies according to region. The coasts of Antarctica have comparatively milder temperatures reaching freezing point only in summer. The highest temperatures are on the high polar plateau. At the South Pole the temperatures vary from -20c to -70 in winter. The lowest ever temperature on the surface of the earth has been recorded at the Vostok Station a Soviet base in Antarctica- -89.6 degrees C (-129 degrees F). This temperature is sufficient to shatter steel.
There are various stations in Antarctica which record temperatures. At the Palmer Station the average annual temperature is -3C, at the McMurdo Station it is -17 C and at the South Pole Station it is -48C.
Antarctica is not only the coldest continent but also the driest. The annual mean temperature in Antarctica has increased by about 2.5 degrees Celsius over a period of fifty years.
