Finally, conclusive physical evidence that Melbourne has the worst climate in Australia.

City ................ hrs per day / total

Adelaide .............. 4.8 / 120.2
Alice Springs ........ 9.9 / 237.2
Brisbane .............. 6.5 / 162.6
Broome .............. 10.6 / 265.6
Canberra ............. 6.3 / 145.5 (2 days missing)
Cairns ................. 6.1 / 153.3
Darwin ............... 10.4 / 260.4
Hobart ................ 5.0 / 125.1
Melbourne .......... 3.7 / 93.2
Mildura ................ 5.8 / 144.4
Perth .................. 7.3 / 183.0
Sydney ............... 6.5 / 155.1 (one day missing)
Townsville ........... 6.2 / 155.1
Wagga Wagga ...... 5.3 / 131.3


and naturally it looks like I won't be getting my gear out until late next week, although there is a 99% chance that with each passing day, the "sunny" forecast will become "mostly sunny", then partly cloudy .... mostly cloudy..... morning drizzle..... as per usual.
Its being sad as hell this year, every night its being overcast with only a few breaks of sky now and again for the last 2 weeks. I think this is the worst year on record It will be coming into summer again which means this year has being a lost course, its time for Broome me thinks
