Looks real nice to me, but I'm a warm weather fan.
Nice warm to hot summers, basically no real winter…no snow…very few frost…and a lot of sunshine. It reminds of a Florida station like St. Petersburg or Sarasota. I think the 70 F average highs in winter are text-book perfect in Florianópolis. The latitude is perfect as well 27 South. I have said many times, these climates between 20 and maybe 27 N/S get most of the benefits of the true tropics...without alot of the undesirable traits.

Not nearly as sunny as you might think - which applies generally to much of south-eastern Brazil. Didn't even reach 2,000 hours last year, though the average looks to be somewhat higher (checked OGIMET tables).

Hmmm:
I didn’t know that. I knew it was too good to be true – lol. Really a shame, because temp wise, this would be a perfect place in terms of a nice warm climate with a modest and mild winter season. Temp wise this is the type of climate I really go for.
Still, 2000 sun hrs annuallseems really low considering the climate and latitude. Any chance another station in the city outskirts has a different number.

Unlikely. I haven't yet found a location in that SE quadrant from about Rio south with more than 2200 hours, and some are considerably lower, like Sao Paulo. Any better results would be of interest.
