For a "bad" Australian climate, it's actually okay. It has warmish summers which compensate (or "contrast") the cool winters, mild yearly rainfall and rather decent sunshine hours (99 days annually would equal to around 2550 hrs).

Have you considered these?

Notice how cloudy, wet and/ot "summerless" they are compared to Orange?

Sale is actually gorgeous, it just meets my A+ requirements thanks to those summers, mild winters, moderate sunshine and low precipitation

Australia for being colder. I think this is one of the few times I will choose an Australian location over a U.S. one.

Both climates are pretty nice from October to May. I'd have to see sunshine hours for both places. If they're both reasonably sunny, they're both A climates in my book. I'll give the slight edge to Australia without any additional information.

Was about to do that. But it seemed a bit similar to Australia's Orange.

Orange in Australia because it is cooler and has nice precipitation.
