Default Record 'warm' South Pole

Just in an idle moment I had a look at the South Pole Amundsen-Scott (89009) temperature today. It appeared 'warm' with a max of -30.1 which, according to Wikipedia beat the previous high in June which was -31. The wind was blowing at 24kts, which I guess is fairly unusual and brought down the 'warmer' air from aloft. No big deal but interesting, I thought!

That would explain the near record sea ice ! As according to warmist the ice is increasing because of warming and in the Arctic it's decreasing because of warming. But hold on at the moment it's on the increase in the Arctic because of warming but what happens if the Antarctic starts to decrease....yes you've got it because of warming. Okay what happens if global temperatures don't do anything, yes you've got it mister, global warming.
