@Snowy yeah thats what I was saying, some say we are, I have always thought we were classed as sub-tropical.
But some maps show us as not being in the 'zone' with lattitude as the guide

@booboo will be happy, it was hot as Hades here yesterday, but it's finally fucking rained a bit and dropped the temps to a much more bearable 30 degrees. It is only 9am though, so plenty of time for that to climb.

@taniwharugby Two different things. There is the geographic lines of latitude and then various Climate Classification systems - Koppen being the most famous.
Trewartha is a modified Koppler system designed to address some anomalies.
Weather is influenced by far more than latitude - water , ocean currents, wind, altitude Himalayas are in the sub-tropic latitudes, Kilimanjaro practically on the equator.
Auckland is the antipodes of southern Spain but no way does it share its climate with Andalucia.
Ironically Central is the closest approximation to the climate of its northern latitudes because it is the closest we have to a continental climate.

@booboo about 15 I'd say, even turned on the bedroom air con a few times already when been high 20's at night, but otherwise fan is on in the bedroom all the time.
I dont think we quite make it into the tropics or sub-tropics like Aus.
Yeah sorry to digress
Comment was more on the ridiculous 28 deg overnight minimum here in Cairns last night, as hinted at by @mariner4life .
BTW Mrs Boo is getting some serious re-education on checking accommodation listings in tropical locales to ensure the whole unit is airconned not just the bedrooms ...
I'll take any further weather discussion elsewhere given @Mn5 is getting all @Stargazer y.

Can't eat shellfish. Have an allergy.
Besides the idea of a two crabs eyes sticking out of some mashed potato is just wrong.

No such thing. Both of your parents, and yourself have to be born in Cornwall before you're proper Cornish.
And your toes must be webbed

@Kiap On Christmas Day a three year old explained to me how they had left a glass of milk and a cookie out for Santa and in that was left in the morning was a few crumbs.
When I was a kid we left out 4 quart bottles of beer for Santa and all that was left in the morning was the empties.
I did ask one year how Santa managed to drink four beers at every house in the world without getting drunk. MY dad told me that most of the beer was drunk by the reindeers because they did all the hard work and that it didn't affect them the sameas humans. Except for Rudolph which is why he has a red nose!
