"A team of researchers has presented the coldest ever recorded temperature on Earth: minus 136 degrees Fahrenheit (or, minus 93.2 Celsius)"
The IGY expedition of 1957--58 saw a low of -102.1F but noted that since the deep ice temperature was -60F and the warmest day they had was +5F, the coldest was probably at least -125F. (Based on half-century old memory of National Geograph article.) Whit
