Average temperature:
The average temperature in Antarctica is -50°C (-58°F).
Annual rainfall:
It does not rain in Antarctica because it is so cold and water vapor is frozen out of the air. Although it does not rain, precipitation DOES occur in the form of frost and occasional light snowfall. The interior averages about 2 inches (50 mm) a year, making Antarctica a desert.
