interesting dramatic weather high above Antarctica. Don't quite know what it know means but def good news if you live in the southern hemisphere mid or high latitudes, lower sunburn risk The Aussies have been all over this SSW event (sudden stratospheric warming). But the effects usually aren't so quick. It could take a month (as was the case in Jan/Feb this year for the northern hemisphere). |

knot Intense! This station peaked at 5.5C/42F in late August. With 0C or less the past week, that's going to be the yearly high temp. 5.5 might be the lowest yearly max for a low-elevation station on Ogimet but I don't want to spend the time checking everything. This station is 80.6N and almost sea level.
Edit: The 5.5C day was the only day above 4C, and it rained all day. The second highest was 3.9 on two days in July.

Grytviken still tracking solidly cold—keep in mind that its October average maximum is 5.4° C:  The Antarctic cold is downright unrelenting there! Not a single day within even 2° C of its average maximum for 10 days, let alone above it; Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday tracking about 7° C below average. |

-14°C in Sodankylä with -22°C forecasted later this week. The Arctic is the goddamn Arctic, even in Finland.

I have a friend who lives in Rovaniemi and he did his Finnish army duties in Sodankylä and said it was insanely cold. They camped in temps below -40 and he said some of his...colleagues, got frost bite because they didn't insulate the tents with snow. Sodankylä isn't lacking in snow either though. One of Finland's best cold climates. Hiromant |

Apparently the sleeping bags weren't rated for such temperatures. |

Cape Morris Jesup is the northernmost weather station I know of. It's forecast is what you would expect for 83 N. Cold and dark.  Despite the sun in the google forecast, it is firmly in polar night now, with nautical twilight during the brightest part of the day. Starting on the 15th it won't even get nautical twilight. |

Some spring weather in the forecast but not before more snow falls...  |

Verkhoyansk has posted 3 consecutive daily maximum temperatures below -50C. That's a bit rare for November (note the crazy anomalies almost 15C below the average).
Just 4 days ago, it seemed like this month would barely crack -40. www.pogodaiklimat.ru/monitor.php?id=24266 |

A -50C maximum is impossible in most of the world, but here they have three of them, with the coldest time of the year still a month away.

Dawson is at -37°C, a full 10°C colder than Fairbanks. Not Siberia cold but still brutal.

Similar mechanics at work it seems. Maps show the continental dew points extending out over the ocean. Even Attu is getting some of that Siberian air.   |

Yeah, I suppose those army guys of him were supposed to be SS men whom this poster undoubtedly loves as I know the 1940s there were so cold winters. However, the statistical averages of year's coldest period of Võru are not -35c, -55c, -75c or -135c degrees but -4c / -9c degrees.
However, his poster as always here is trying to portray such a frost like a common phenomenon. As you have noticed, I almost never react to BS posted by this poster because arguing with him is just as useless as an army for a tiny dwarf country but this time he managed to post "only" 26 to 31 degrees of exaggeration, pfft.

Huh? I've never argued with you. I think he means me as usual. For reference, the cold record in Võru is -43,4°C, it has officially recorded -35,8°C (below -34°C in all winter months) in the 1981-2010 period, and it's probably got colder than that in some frost hollow in the woods. Just more ramblings of a madman. |
