"In the summer temperatures are typically in the range 0 to +5 deg C, in winter they are more likely to be between –5 and – 20 deg C. Due to the coastal location and the track taken by southern ocean low pressure weather systems temperatures can vary widely at any time of year. Sea ice may be present from late May to late November but it takes a prolonged period with calm conditions for the ice to form and become fast."
they seem to forget there's a bloody great volcano there on the side that's warming!
Also, itpro. you are wrong again at what i said about output of the Sun originally, as per usual you harp on regardless whether i say you were wrong or not!
anyway, these last 50 years have seen not just major sunspot activity but massive solar flares. every BSGW knobhed scientist always uses these averages to prove MMGW.
the Sun dictates our climate by a vast proportion, however, it's not just sunspots it's everything it does, CME, GRB etc... it's also other space weather, it's also the Planet itself reacting to the Solar system.
try this on for size!
10cm of snow in the UAE. they don't even have a word for SNOW!

I SAY AGAIN FOR THE HARD OF HEARING!!!!!!!!!
THE CORRELATION BETWEEN THE SUN'S REDUCED ACTIVITY (ON ALL COUNTS NOT JUST SUNSPOTS) AND THE RECENT MARKED REDUCTION IN TEMPERATURES IN THE LAST 2 YEARS IS PROOF THAT THE SUN IS THE DICTATOR OF OUR CLIMATE
if the Sun starts spitting feathers again and sunspots appear etc etc then the temps will rise again and the greenhouse effect will be exacerbated and we will cook, good style!
the GE alone will NOT increase temperatures it needs the Sun to warm it up!
we STILL need to STOP cutting down trees. We STILL need to STOP polluting the atmosphere.
but the answer is NOT windfarms and carbon taxes and all the other Gore-inspired BS!
how about this scare story from the USA about the DANGERS of windfarms.
