Adaminaby, NSW; 1,017 m AMSL; 35° 59' 45.96" S
Situated upon the westernmost tableland of the Monaro in South-Western NSW, Adaminaby township yields quite a different climate to that of Cooma; although they both lie within deep-valley locations, allowing for substantial plummeting by nightfall (i.e. frost-hollows), Adaminaby is elevated by 239 m higher than Cooma (778 m AMSL), as well as lying windward (westwards) of the ranges—hence much cooler winter maximum temperatures, alongside drastically more winter precipitation and likewise snowfall, due to greater South-Westerly exposure. Adaminaby should straddle an average of ~25-30 snowy days, annually. Likewise many Western New South Welsh locations, storm activity is frequent and often severe.
My estimation(s) were established chiefly by adding 4.4° C to Cabramurra's average maxima; contrarywise, deducting –2.2° C from its average minima, as well as applying substantial decrease to its annual precipitation (from 1,700.1 mm, to merely 1,160.1 mm). Record lows were established by deducting –0.8° C from the record minima of Thredbo Village; record highs by adding +4.4° C to that of Cabramurra's. Regarding sunshine, I've merely added an extra +10.0 hours of sunshine in every month for Cabramurra. I have chosen Denison St. to represent Adaminaby township—the main street, that is to say.
I shall award dear Adaminaby with a most jovial A–, closely straddling on A; all she really needs are hotter summers and slightly colder winters for A or A+, depending on how much hotter.
This (my) picture taken upon January, 2019, plainly illustrates the deep-valley location of Adaminaby...driving east-north-eastwards from Anglers Reach down into town.
