Re the diurnal range diurnal range vs the seasonal range. I was meaning that very few places have a bigger day/night range (outside of the tropics/warm subtropics) than seasonal range. Eureka and here ( Motueka specifically) have that in common, although here has an even bigger difference than Eureka.
Eureka still has a smaller seasonal range than the Azores though, which is interesting. The Azores has a very small night/day range, partly due to lower sunshine hours and warmer sea probably.
The person that decided on the names for the towns of Eureka and Yreka did not really make a good decision naming those two places with such similar names when they are in such close geographic distance to each other.
Yreka is pronounced Y-rayka while Eureka is pronounced U-reka. So if you're a local you can tell them apart.
Yreka. Y has continentality and interesting weather. Eureka is boring.
