Well idk but I don't feel like the Australian climate or landscape is anything like here.

People say British Columbia is like here but really its not. They have massive high mountains at about 15,000 feet and while we do have hills they are not above 3,000 feet.

I too think that weather is a fact as Canada has a much longer cold winter than either Australia or New Zealand.

Hobart would be the most similar city climate-wise to the UK.

No it isn't.

It has far far milder winters.

The closest cities are in south eastern Alaska and nw British Columbia.

Dunedin is similar to London if the stats on Wiki are to be believed.

London - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Of course London is one of the warmer parts of the UK.

Though I am yet to figure out why Europeans (and Americans) like cold climates, I just spent the last winter in Seoul which has far colder winters than London and would describe it as hell on earth, particularly if you are carrying an infant around with you. London's winters are more bearable.
