I think I'm going to be sick

Actually, the official number for Melbourne is 179, but that 250 is so nearby that the labels overlap. The prime offenders are 250 at Piedmont (-37.90 145.97), 209 @ Mt. Dandenong (-37.83 145.35), 191 @ Powellton (-37.86 145.74), and Wonthaggi (-38.61 145.60) is 204 days/year. That said I'm never moving to Melbourne

Here is the Piedmont ("Noojee") station link: http://www.bom.gov.au/climate/averag...w_085277.shtml
Woohoo, 25.7 clear days a year!
