Averaged out every stat of every month of all 8 state/territory capitals in Australia. To create the average australian city climate, as most australians live in the main cities it's a good idea of the average climate an australian would live in. Quite a warm and wet climate with an increase of rain in summer (thanks brisbane and darwin) and a June-October period very similar to Perth temperature wise. Personally I give it a B, pretty decent but with the wrong precipitation pattern (although not disasterous, there's decent winter rain but not my favourite). I'm assuming most people here would at least like it. What I have done: Averaged out each monthly record high, average high, average low, record low, rainfall, rain days and sunshine of each city to create the ultimate averaged climate of Australia. Darwin's summer rainfall strongly influences the wetter summer while Adelaide and Perth keep spring and summer hot+sunny and winter having many rain days.

Not my taste. No winter, and summers are warm for my liking as well. Precip is fine, but of course no snow so I'm not a fan of that either. Lots of sunshine compared to my area as well. D
Like the idea of the thread! Might have to do it for either the US or Pennsylvania. Bet the US would be extreme including Alaska with Florida and hawaii

US would take a very long time, took me 3-4 hours just with 8 capitals...imagine 50! Unless you guys use excel and can be efficient (im not great at excel) .

C+, a comfy subtropical climate but not much else.

Better than any actual Australian big city climate because of the extra summer rain but without being too hot year-round, a solid B+.
Great idea as well!

I appreciate the effort, but not the climate. It's too uneventful and boring. So a C it is then.

B.
Loses points for being too wet and the wrong precip pattern.

Nice idea, but Iโm not a fan of the climate.
Iโll give it a D for being pleasant but boring.

B. Winters are a bit too warm.

How come did you get 41.7ยฐC for the record high? I know Brisbane and Darwin helps to lower the average but the majority of coastal Australian capital cities south of 30ยฐS have records of 45~47ยฐC. City | Jan Record High | Feb Record High | Sydney | 45.8 | 42.1 | Melbourne | 45.6 | 46.4 | Brisbane | 40.0 | 41.7 | Perth | 45.8 | 46.2 | Adelaide | 47.4 | 44.7 | Canberra | 41.6 | 42.2 | Hobart | 41.8 | 40.1 | Darwin | 36.1 | 36.0 | Average | 43.0 | 42.4 |

D+; bloody boring "winters", as well as very un-Aussie summersโfar too stable in terms of record summer lows. I do appreciate the effort that went into this, however; this is far too complicated for me to accomplish!

The annual average max/low isn't the same as the average max/low of the warmest and coldest months. A- anyway. Basically identical to Parramatta, Sydney

D (I'm sorry but it's just really difficult for an Australian climate to be good to me)
Interesting concept! I'd do one for Missouri, but honestly any climate you pick here other than in the far southeast part is pretty close to average. Not a lot of climate diversity in this state.
Now that I think about it, I wonder what the least climatically diverse state in the US is? Most diverse is almost certainly California, but least...maybe Louisiana? Missouri has to be pretty high on the undiverse list.

Either 1) i've fucked up and pressed the wrong numbers while compiling information or 2) I only used 1981-2010 records, you may be using all years of data.

I grade C for this hybrid climate. At least outside of warmest five months look super comfy based on the averages to enjoy outdoor activities.

A-, very pleasant. Would prefer a little warmer, particularly in winter, but it's not bad.

The climate is a B-, pleasant and comfortable, but too warm especially in winter which has never seen a negative temperature. Now that I think about it, I wonder what the least climatically diverse state in the US is? Most diverse is almost certainly California, but least...maybe Louisiana? Missouri has to be pretty high on the undiverse list. Rhode Island or Delaware maybe? Both are very small with no mountains. There is a difference between northern and coastal southern Louisiana but nothing like bigger states.
