Melbourne Weather
My guess is, it's a little like Christchurch (only hotter). True, sometimes we get quite remarkable extremes in one day. The classic is the "cool change", where we can be sweltering in 40+ temperatures for quite some time (maybe days), then with a puff of wind, plummet to a very refreshing 20 or so.
Autumn in Melbourne is near-perfect; very stable sunny days, mid-20's and we do get autumn colours (unlike much of Australia). Out hot is actually much hotter than Sydney, and they are much wetter. Tasmania is much worse!
Perth probably has the best climate - a Pommy friend of ours described it as having the climate the Californians boast about.
Interestingly, Melbourne is regarded along with Vienna and Vancouver as being the world's "most livable" cities. I am off to Vienna tomorrow (my work takes me there twice each year). Not bad, having to live and work in two of the three (I've never been to Vancouver).
