Antarctica has endured near record-breaking temperatures of late. And now a meridional jet stream flow (induced by low solar activity) is beginning to funnel some of that bone-chilling cold northwards, into South America, Australia, and New Zealand.

Antarctica’s Dome Fuji Station, which is located some 2,400 km from Scott Base, has plunged to -81.7 deg C (-115 deg F) — this is among the locales coldest readings ever recorded.

Professor John Cottle, Antarctica New Zealand Chief Scientific Adviser, said July is typically the coldest month of the year, so the temperature could easily drop another degree or two next month.

“At bases in the center of Antarctica, people are unlikely to be able to venture outside, or if they do, they won’t be able to have any bare skin exposed to avoid frostbite,” said Cottle.

“With these conditions, [frostbite] would occur within a few seconds, much like a ‘burn’ from liquid nitrogen.”

Temperature anomalies across the icy continent have been holding well-below normal this week.

According to the University of Maine, today, June 17, the Antarctic is -3.8C below the 1979-2000 base.

However, last week that departure from the norm was a staggering -8.6C below:

Be prepared be very prepared the truth about anything is being censored, political elite are not sciencetist, Doctors they are lying scumbag looking for control, when the clouds and cold take hold solar unless, coal mines will be closed America burns starts to burn homes to keep warm 008 as always tx learn something new it's what you don't know will kill you

Doctors they are lying scumbag looking for control

Nope, they are mostly working for large hospitals now and therefore what they say is controlled by the few in charge under penalty of losing their income. That is what globalism is all about. That is what those big box stores are all about, controlling the little guy.
