Antarctica does not have a specific time zone of its own. The region is divided into multiple time zones based on the research stations operating there, such as New Zealand time (NZST/NZDT), Chile time (CLT/CLST), and Australian Eastern time (AEST/AEDT).
Each station has its own time, usually the same time as the country from where they get their supplies.
Casey Station - UTC+8
Davis Station - UTC+7
Dumont-d'Urville Station - UTC+10
McMurdo Station - UTC+12/UTC+13
Macquarie Island - UTC+10/UTC+11
Mawson Station - UTC+5
Palmer Station - UTC-4/UTC-3
Rothera Station - UTC-3
Syowa Station - UTC-3
Vostok Station - UTC+6
Antarctica covers 10% of the earth's surface, and there are many weather conditions on the continent, depending on where you are.
Particularly, and for the purposes of answering your question with some precision: today's temperature at the South Pole is -21 degrees F (2016Feb15). It's cloudy and predicted to be colder. The sun is up all day and will set on March 22, 2016 -- for six months.
No, Antarctica does not observe Daylight Saving Time. The continent's population is primarily made up of scientific researchers and support staff who typically adhere to the time zone of their home country or base station.
Antarctica does not have its own specific GMT since it spans multiple time zones. The time in Antarctica can vary depending on the region where you are located. However, some research stations use the time zone of the country that operates them.
The South Pole does not have a specific time zone since all the lines of longitude converge there. Instead, researchers and visitors follow the time zone of their home base or operational headquarters.
No, Europe and Antarctica do not extend into the Tropic Time Zones, as they are located further away from the equator where the Tropic Time Zones are situated. The Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn mark the boundaries of the Tropic Time Zones, while Europe and Antarctica are located in higher latitudes.
There are no official time zones in Antarctica as it is mostly governed by international treaties. Most research stations in Antarctica use the time of their home country or the coordinating time of the station.
Antarctica has no standard time zone(s). Research stations operate on the time zone of their support staffs in their home countries.
Antarctica has no time zones, because it could be in any time zone, so there is no time difference.

The largest number of continents covered by one time zone is three. This can be seen in the Eastern Caribbean Time Zone, which covers North America, South America, and Antarctica.
