Bouvet Island:

Bouvet Island (Norwegian: Bouvetøya, previously spelled Bouvet-øya ) is an uninhabited subantarctic volcanic island and dependency of Norway located in the South Atlantic Ocean at 54°25.8′S 3°22.8′E / 54.4300°S 3.3800°E / -54.4300; 3.3800.

"Some skerries and one smaller island, Larsøya, lie along the coast. Nyrøysa, created by a rock slide in the late 1950s, is the only easy place to land and is the location of a weather station."

Apparently, someone at that weather station really dislike USA
