Weather & Climate in Southern Australia
The coastal areas of southern Australia have a Mediterranean climate with four distinct seasons. Summers in southern Australia (December to February) are dry and can get hot. Most of the rainfall occurs in the winter months (June to August) and temperatures hover around 60 degrees. Spring and fall have a mild and pleasant climate. In general, it is hotter to the north, as you approach the equator, and cooler further south, such as on Kangaroo Island.
Tasmania has a temperate maritime climate with temperatures varying very little throughout the year. However, rainfall amounts vary dramatically across the island, which is unusual for an island of its size. Summers are comfortably warm, winters are cold and windy, and it is partly cloudy year round.
