Good question. There was no reason for that kind of response

Subtropical Queensland/New South Wales has more tender vegetation then S. Florida.

Well it would, wouldn't it? None of the plants in Queensland have to endure that one cold snap in the season like they have to in Florida, even though the average temperature between Miami and Cairns in the coldest month is a surprising ~1.5°C in both low and high. Gulf Stream sure packs a punch, giving Miami temperatures that would otherwise only exist below 20° latitude at ~26°N (doesn't Havana get some pretty vigorous cold snaps as well, even though it's right at the Tropic of Cancer?)

there is a parallel universe where Brisbane Australia never had a temperature above -4C (24F) at any point in history

there is a parallel universe where Hobart Tasmania averages highs of -28C (-33F) in it's HOTTEST MONTH

so in other universes, Australia is totally cold

In a parallel universe, you are intelligent, well presented and knowledgeable. In a parallel universe you are also well known on this forum for your knowledge of weather and climate.

I mentioed this a few posts back in this thred....

But there is no factual basis (at least from what I've seen) that subtropical Australia is any cooler in winter than the mean temp for it's latitude averaged over the other regions with simiar Cfa and Cs climates. Brisbane has a mean temp of 60 F in the coolest month -not much different from Hong Kong (60 F) or Orlando, Fl (61) near the same latitude.

It is true, tropical Australia (below 25 S) is a bit cooler than the mean average for it's latitude in winter.

Not true. Phoenix's average daytime highs are in the 60s, and nights are still cold during the winter.

Nights are cold in almost every desert in the world, even in summer except in the few palces where there's high localized humidity, like Phoenix. Most deserts in the world can be 110°F in the day and under 60°F at night
