In recent decades, new high temperature records have substantially outpaced new low temperature records on a growing portion of Earth's surface. [1] Comparison shows seasonal variability for record increases. The list of weather records includes the most extreme occurrences of weather phenomena for various categories. Many weather records are ...
However a review of satellite measurements taken between 2010 and 2013 found several places located along a ridge between Dome A and Dome F which recorded even lower temperatures of −92 to −94 °C (−134 to −137 °F), with the lowest reliable temperature being −93.2 °C (−135.8 °F) recorded in 2010, at , at an elevation of 3,900 m ...
The next world record low temperature was a reading of −88.3 °C (−126.9 °F; 184.8 K), measured at the Soviet Vostok Station in 1968, on the Antarctic Plateau. Vostok again broke its own record with a reading of −89.2 °C (−128.6 °F; 184.0 K) on 21 July 1983. [8] This remains the record for a directly recorded temperature.

The FOX Forecast Center said temperatures will plummet as much as 45 degrees below average in spots, leading to below-zero temperatures across at least 20 states, from the Plains to the Great ...
Temperatures as cold as minus 23 degrees were recorded in the Texas Panhandle, still the state's all-time record low today. Dallas-Fort Worth plunged to minus 8, which was 6 degrees colder than ...
In May 1937 the world's first North Pole ice station, North Pole-1, was established by Soviet scientists 20 kilometres (13 mi) from the North Pole after the ever first landing of four heavy and one light aircraft onto the ice at the North Pole.
Antarctica has the lowest naturally occurring temperature ever recorded: −89.2 °C (−128.6 °F) at Vostok Station in 1983. [4] It is also extremely dry (technically a desert, or so called polar desert), averaging 166 millimetres (6.5 in) of precipitation per year, as weather fronts rarely penetrate far into the continent.
