Pretty wild that you can drive a short distance northwest and go from a Finland climate to a Louisiana one.

Edit: oh shit that's the ACT. I thought it was some other mountainous area. I call shenanigans.
8 0 Replyoh shit that’s the ACT
Actually looking at it again, I think it might not be the ACT. I think it's around Kosciuszko.
6 0 ReplyYes, I would think Finland would be more around the top of the Snowies/Vic Alps, particularly as you approach the treeline. England seems a better fit for the ACT (though you might need to ignore summer for that).
6 0 ReplyACT = Wales. My welsh grandmother literally moved up there after grandpa died because it reminded her of glamorgan.
3 0 ReplyDoes Wales run a dry 40 degrees in summer?

Yeah Kosciuszko would make a hell of a lot more sense.

So they reckon that both Sydney and Melbourne have the same climate (?!), and that climate is just like England (?!?!).
No.
Just no.
3 0 ReplyJust confusing use of colour for the dataset I think with most of the population in different shades of green. Sydney is marked in the Louisiana region as far as I can tell.
