Rate this crappy SW Vic climate. I saw an ad on TV for it which featured families going on about what an awesome place it is, so here we are. I streetviewed it, it is actually pretty ugly. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamilton,_Victoria#Climate D+. The crummer lows are hysterically cold, bipolar crummers with avg highs spiked by a few intermittent hot days, and masses upon masses of drizzle. Chock full of subarctic stratocrapulus, moreso than Melbourne. Worse yet, it shares the name with Lewis Hamilton  |

Love those summers and winters are certainly manageable and quite dry at that. It sharing the name with vegan-BLM-activist-FIA-brownnoser Lewis Cheatington almost cost it tho   |

 Gonna have to necropost this one. A solid D, too chilly all year round, especially the nights. In a way, I like its summers better than Melbourne's because they seem drier, but the winters I'd prefer Mel's. |

I think those sunshine hours are wrong there ^^ Likely these ones are closer to the real thing  |

^^ thats from the nearby Hamilton Research Station site..... one of the few places in AU that actually records legit sunshine hours.
Knowing that part of south western Vic, ( my fathers family came from the district ) I'd say pretty well accurate.
Lots of Wikiboxes have BS sunshine hours taken from all sorts of dubious sources... I myself mostly take little if any notice of them....

B, summer nights are too cool
Re. the sunshine hours, I doubt the wikibox is correct as there is almost no way it would have 290+ hours in Feb

A-, temps are great aside from the summer lows, and the precipitation pattern is amazing.

C-, slightly better than London but worse than Hobart IMO, particularly with that poor sunshine and summer diurnal range! Mediocre, but not disgraceful year-round, thanks to some warm summer days and lack of extreme cold
