Antarctica sets a record cold six-month period… Neumayer station sets new winter record low, sees rapid cooling since 2000!
German Die kalte Sonne here features Antarctica’s record cold winter – the coldest since temperature measurements began some 60 years ago.
Coldest April-September period
The Amundsen Scott station at the South Pole recorded a mean temperature of -60.9°C for the April 1 to September 30 period, according to the US National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC).
For the June-July-August period, the mean was minus 62.9°C — the second coldest recorded.
Apparently, the 140 or so ppm added CO2 couldn’t trap enough heat to prevent a record cold from being set. The previous record for June-July-August was set in 2004.
Neumayer sets record cold, sees 3°C of cooling since 1985
Die kalte Sonne reports that a record was also set at the German Neumayer Antarctic station, located on the Antarctic coast, which saw a mean June-July-August temperature of -28.6°C.
Recording at the Neumayer station began in 1985, and the linear trend over the past 35 years has fallen by almost 3°C! It’s been cooling even faster since 2000:
The German Neumayer Antarctic station has seen a distinct cooling trend since 1985, according to data from the German DWD national weather service. This is not getting reported by the media in Germany in any way, shape, or form.
We can just imagine the blaring headlines if the trend instead had shown 3°C of warming. You’d have a thousand German journalists descending on the South Pole by now.
Record warm reading gets discarded
Last February, for example, the German Berliner Morgenpost reported how for the first time the temperature had climbed over 20°C at the northern tip of the Antarctic peninsula – Seymour Island. “At the South Pole, climate change is very clear,” declared the Morgenpost.
However, a subsequent World Meteorological Organization (WMO) investigation found the reading had in fact nothing to do with climate change, Die kalte Sonnereports:
The 20.75°C “record” reading resulted from a faulty instrument and thus was nullified last July.
Yet, activist groups like Germany’s DUH don’t want to hear any of it. They continue to cite the nullified record even today for gathering petition signatures.

I’m of the opinion that earth is on the way into another ice age. Like other readers who will know, Al Capon at electroverse.net has been issuing reams of validated evidence for well over twelve months proving that temperatures are gradually falling.
If temperatures were rising as we are constantly told, where is the evidence? Is there anyone who can say they are experiencing higher temperatures where they live? If these people exist, why haven’t they been put up as proof that temperatures are rising?
Here where I live on the southern tablelands of NSW Australia, it is definitely not getting warmer and here are my observations to prove my point:
(1) The last four winters, being snow skiers, we have experienced the best snow volumes and dry conditions in >20 years we have skied in Australia. Prior to that, snow volumes tended to be low and the snow was always wet.
(2) The last two winters have been noticeably colder (at home) because we have needed to burn more wood to warm the house. (The building is fully insulated and windows are laminated glass)
(3) Last summer, the weather was like a mix of autumn and spring. It wasn’t hot. We had a few days over 30 degrees C, while most of the time December to March it was overcast and we got more rain. Summers are usually very dry. Temperatures averaged in the mid to high 20’s.
(4) This year, autumn started early and our deciduous trees were the warning. Leaf colour changes were the big surprise and that happened much earlier than previous seasons.
Today, November 12, it is 13 degrees outdoors and we just lit a fire because indoor temp dropped to 17 degrees and it’s only 3.30pm.
Heat is hiding in the deep ocean. It will emerge and will burn us all as punishment for our ecological sins.
