Antarctica weather
Definition
The extreme climatic conditions prevalent on the continent of Antarctica, characterized by sub-zero temperatures averaging -49°C (-56°F) annually, ferocious katabatic winds exceeding 200 mph, minimal precipitation making it the driest place on Earth, and prolonged periods of darkness or continuous daylight.
A colloquial term for brutally cold, unforgiving weather, often invoked hyperbolically to describe anywhere far chillier than a typical freezer aisle.
