Antarctica – The Place With The Most Weather Records

Antarctica is the most fascinating place for extreme weather. Are you surprised?
Well, here are the facts.
People cannot live in Antarctica all year sound because it’s too cold.
In 1983 scientist recorded the lowest temperature ever : -89.4 Celsius degree! It’s also the wettest place on earth, but not because it’s of the most rain or snow.
It’s the ‘wettest’ place because 98% of Antarctica is covered in ice. But it’s also the driest place because it never rains there – it only snow!
Antarctica hold another record too – there is a place there with the world’s thickest ice , it 2,555 m deep!
