Antarctica may have experienced its warmest day ever recorded on Tuesday, with the temperature reading of 63.5°F, reports The Weather Underground.
Tuesday's record high temperature follows another high reading of 63.3°F set just the day before. Until this week's heat wave, the highest-known recorded temperature on the continent was 62.6°F back in 1976.
The Antarctic Peninsula where the readings were made "is one of the fastest warming spots on Earth," reports The Weather Undergound. The website cites studies from 2012 that show the world is warming at a quickening pace.
Five nations and territories have tied or hit all-time high temperature records so far this year.

whining about the cold. seriously? you know going in what Winter will be....and if it goes off that course then SO WHAT???? youre not homeless in the street with icicles on your nose.
follow me @oldirtyplaster on the Twitter thing.....i say awesome stuff
knowing it'll be cold doesn't mean we have to like it.
and by this late in the season a certain amount of 'cold fatigue' has set in. it's not so much the fact that's cold that's bothersome it's that it's STILL COLD that drives one mad.
