Time of Year & Atmospheric conditions for Observing?

What time of year favors atmospheric conditions for Observing? I have lost interest this winter in observing due the weather conditions in the south East of Queensland. The stars seem to twinkle too much of late and I just seem to be having bad luck with clouds as well. It’s either one or the other. I love camping in the cold! & thought winter was the best time to observe but must say I seem to be miserably mistaken from my point of view at this time.

Just curious, is there a favorable time of year for Observing at all? Dew control seems pointless if you can’t clear the sky?

Cheers.
