This is a depression in the southwest of Sunland, about 80km from the nearest coast. It lies far enough south that it escapes most of the monsoon and therefore is a desert climate. The valley is surrounded by mountains (which puts it in a rain shadow) and lies 110m below sea level. Although it is a desert, it is still quite humid, as the oceanic influence of the 31C SSTs surrounding Sunland in summer is present. Infact, the straight between the southern coast of Sunland and the Pilbara coast of Australia is one of the warmest seas in the world.
F. Way too hot and sunny for me in perpetuity, with no redeeming characteristics. However I will say the winter record low is impressive considering the averages.
I don't hate it and I do certainly appreciate those sunshine totals and temps from April to September. The rest is quite too hot, though fully manageable with A/C.
