Manmade Global Warming - New Extremes, page-67

Antarctica was mired in a deep, deep freeze. That's typically the case during the southernmost continent's winter months, but 2021 was different.The chill was exceptional, even for the coldest location on the planet. The average temperature at the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station between April and September, a frigid -61 degrees Celsius, was the coldest on record, dating back to 1957 .We first learned of this record through a tweet from Stefano Di Battista, who has published research on Antarctic temperatures. The legitimacy of Di Battista's information was confirmed by Richard Cullather, a research scientist at Nasa's Global Modeling and Assimilation Office.
