I WONDER - What Is The Coldest Continent In The World?

Antarctica is the coldest place on Earth, with winter temperatures dropping below minus 100°F (minus 73°C). The lowest temperature recorded was minus 128.6°F (minus 89.2°C) at Vostok Station in 1983. Catabatic winds further decrease the perceived temperature due to wind chill.

What is the average temperature in the interior of Antarctica during the winter months?

What is the lowest temperature ever recorded at Antarctica's Vostok Station?

In what year was the lowest temperature recorded in Antarctica?

What are catabatic winds and how do they affect the temperature in Antarctica?

Explain the wind chill factor and its impact on perceived temperature in Antarctica.
