Gee, that is very hard to answer. Our weather has been all over the place for the last few years that it makes it almost impossible to comment on a 'standard'.
So far 2011 has been terrible.
2010 was not a great year for cloud free nights.
Whereas 2009 gave us months at a time of totally cloud free skies.
2008 gave long periods of cloud and long periods of clear.
At the moment our long range forecast is a bit 'hit & miss'.
I would love to say that a certain part of Australia will have a high percentage of clear nights, but that is impossible lately. La Nina has really turned things around.
