It's 65°F in Antarctica.
GENEVA — The U.N. weather agency said Friday that an Argentine research base on the northern tip of Antarctica is reporting a temperature that, if confirmed, could be a record high for the icy continent.
The WMO’s committee that draws on the agency’s weather and climate archives is now expected to verify whether the reading would amount to a new record. “The record appears to be likely associated with what we call a regional ‘foehn’ event over the area,” Cerveny said, defining it as a rapid warming of air coming down a slope or mountain.
