He's done it before, ridiculous amounts of snow I heard caused havoc this time. About a year's average fell in a day or two. |  | | |

It rarely snows in Antarctica it’s a very dry continent. A years average is probably a few millimetres. |  |

Possibly the wind blowing the top snow around, like a sandstorm in the desert.
Antarctica is one of the driest places on the planet in terms of precipitation. | |

It's technically a desert, but the snow is blown around which makes it snow - if that makes sense. | | | |

Antartica gets 166 mm of precipitation a year. 6.5 inches in old money. Technically a desert if less than 10". Snow is generally 10 times the volume of rain so that is 65" of snow a year. | |

An average of 6.5 inches of snow falls on Antarctica, and most of that snow falls across the outer portions of the continent. The interior receives as little as 1 inch per year, while the coast often receives yards of snow. | | | |

The total precipitation on Antarctica, averaged over the entire continent, is about 166 millimetres (6.5 inches) per year (Vaughan et al., J Climate, 1999). The actual rates vary widely, from high values over the Peninsula (15 to 25 inches a year) to very low values (as little as 50 millimetres (2.0 inches) in the high interior (Bromwich, Reviews of Geophysics, 1988). Areas that receive less than 250 millimetres (9.8 inches) of precipitation per year are classified as deserts. Almost all Antarctic precipitation falls as snow.[16] Rainfall is rare and mainly occurs during the summer in coastal areas and surrounding islands.[16] Note that the quoted precipitation is a measure of its equivalence to water, rather than being the actual depth of snow. The air in Antarctica is also very dry. The low temperatures result in a very low absolute humidity, which means that dry skin and cracked lips are a continual problem for scientists and expeditioners working in the continent.

6.5" of precipitation that is roughly 65" of snow. | |
