Antarctica looks much the same in summer as it does in winter. The ice packs shrink a little and a little more rock is visible around the coast. Also, the summer months will have longer days and be much brighter than the winter months.
Average temperatures in the Antarctic interior get down to -70 degrees Celsius during the winter months and -35 degrees Celsius in the warmer months. The coastal temperatures are much warmer with a range of -15 to -32 Celsius in Winter and -5 to +5 Celsius in Summer.
Antarctica lies south of 60 degrees South Latitude, which means that during winter there is at least one day of no sunrise, depending on how far south you are on the continent.
At the South Pole at 90 degrees South Latitude, there are six months of days with no sunrise.
Moonlight, starlight and aurora, however, make for interesting light during these periods.
Antarctica is the coldest, windiest and darkest continent on earth, and all these extreme attributes are available during its winter season.
