1600 annual rainfall is too much...

Rainfall is distributed with 100mm + every month.

Not sure on sunshine hours.

B+.

Sun?

I'm guessing 1800; that would be a C

Too rainy, too bland

BOM stats have Norfolk Is with about 2475 hours per year - I don't think Lord Howe would be much less than that, at least at the brightest part. A "B/B-" only because of high rainfall.

B+. Assuming I never wanted to see an autumn, winter or spring again I'd put this place high on my list. Only drawback might be the sticky summer nights.

I'll be generous and give it a C-. Too warm year-round and I imagine summers are sticky, but it could be much worse. Rainfall is good. Sunshine hours on the high side, but tolerable.

I expected less, definitely deserves an A with those hours then.
