Scientists say the number of storms around Antarctica is increasing due to the unrestrained loss of sea ice.

Sea ice in Antarctica in 2023 was 80% below normal levels in the Weddell , Bellingshausen , and Ross Seas .

This decline has caused ripple effects throughout the continent's climate system.

Storms in Antarctica tend to occur in coastal areas, as they are driven by weather systems that originate over the Southern Ocean .

The strongest recorded storm in Antarctica reached wind speeds of over 300 km/h.
