Intermittent atmospheric blocking-high activity in the South Tasman Sea is shown to play a key role in delivering substantial snowfall as far south as at least 75degreesS on the central East Antarctic Ice Sheet plateau. Typically, cyclones fail to penetrate this far (>1000 km) inland, and accumulation was thought to be dominated by clear-sky precipitation. In East Antarctica, the meridional cloud bands delivering the moisture originate from as far north as 35degrees - 40degreesS, and appear to preferentially pass over the East Antarctic coast in a corridor from similar to120degrees to 160degreesE. Comparison of surface observations, model, and satellite data suggests that a few such episodes contribute a significant proportion of the ( low)...
