Davis Station (Australia)
❄️ Davis Station: A beautiful, clear day at the "Riviera of the South." Highs of -1°C with light winds and 24-hour daylight. The ice is sparkling, and the Adélie penguins are busy with their chicks. It’s as good as Antarctic weather gets! 🇦🇺 How’s the morale at the station today? Send us some ice berg photos! #DavisStation #Antarctica #AusAntarctic

Davis Station (Australia), Antarctica ☀️ The Riviera of the South. Davis is enjoying some of the best weather on the continent today. Clear skies and "balmy" temps above freezing. A rare day for outdoor research without the heavy parkas.

High: 3°C | Low: -2°C

Tip: Use high SPF—the reflection off the ice and snow is intense! #DavisStation #Antarctica #AusAntarctic #ExtremeWeather #Sun
