@japanesesakebrewer The northerlies in Wilsons Prom don't cross any water and it gets a sort of foehn effect from the hills north of the station. Usually the heat spikes just ahead of a cold front when the northerlies are strong enough to push through and is short-lived. Last night was actually an example, temps in the first column,  |

Point Reyes is mostly covered in thick fog for what is the warmer half of the year inland. Bloody hell. Looked at the link you posted for the 2012 heat wave and Point Reyes didn't rise above 16°C all July long! Makes Eureka seem like a subtropical paradise  July wasn't a heat wave for the region; both San Francisco and Oakland were slightly below average by a 1°F or so. Onshore breeze is strongest midsummer, so warm temperatures are difficult October 2012 had a heat wave, Point Reyes reached 86°F (30°C)! |

If Wilsons Promontory fits AHS Heat zone 3 and temps over 35°C are extremely rare, then it's better than Point Reyes.

Well, what I meant was that Sacramento, Redding, Death Valley et cetera had a heat wave, yet that coastal region was like below average even. Eureka didn't rise above 20°C all month, in spite of Willow Creek in all likelihood having a scorcher. |

Wilsons Promontory seems a bit better with slightly warmer summers and more chances for heat.

If you mean July 2012, inland California didn't have a heat wave; rest of the country did. Or am I missing something? One of the hotter parts of July 2012 for me. Anamolies, 850 hPa level  whole month  overall, California was average or below average. Unless there's a part of July I missed. Here's what the early October heatwave looked like when Point Reyes recorded 3 days in the 80s. Here's what the early October heat wave looked like in comparison  from www.esrl.noaa.gov/psd/data/composites/day/ |

Wilsons Promontory is my choice, at least there's some chance of warmth; 'nuff said.

Wilsons Promontory, reluctantly because it still has a complete shithouse climate, just cool and gray year-round and that's it. Point Reyes would drive me to suicide.

Wilsons Promontory, easily; due to getting pure, raw cold with nigh-cyclonic subantarctic storms, as opposed to the boring sea fog of Point Reyes. Too, the proper summer heat that, at least, occurs on occasion.

Wilsons Promontory. Point Reyes is almost equatorial based on seasonability. Both have quite warm winters but great summers.
