By taking the annual average low and high, dividing rainfall by 365, multiplying the annual % percentage by 12 hours, etc.

In Nice:

12.4°C - 19.6°C with 2mm of rainfall, 7.5 hours of bright sunshine, sunrise at 7.06am and sunset at 7.06pm.


(To calculate average sunrise/sunset, take solar noon on Dec 25 (which should be exactly average) and add a number of minutes corresponding to the % of yearly duration of DST, i.e. in France it is 7 months, and solar noon on Dec 25 in Nice is 12:31pm, so I added (7/12)*60 minutes = 35 minutes, hence 1.06pm).

Our average day looks like a late September/early October day with below average temps by a few degrees and a brief shower

Perth

Max: 24.6C / 76F
Min: 12.7C / 55F
Rainfall: 2.3mm / 0.09"
Sunshine: 8.8 hours

The time of year closest to the averages here would be late April and early May plus October.

Brisbane:

Average minimum: 15.8C (60.4F)
Average maximum: 25.3C (77.5F)
Rainfall: 3.11 mm
Sunshine: 7.8 hours

Trying to pin down a period in the year where this occurs is tricky as sunshine is weighted more towards late winter/spring.

The "average" annual temps above are fairly typical in October, although October is a lot sunnier than 7.8 hours/day. The sunshine stat would most likely occur late July/early August just as the levels are starting to ramp up.

The rainfall would most likely be in May. Our rainfall pattern is not at all uniformly distributed e.g. June/July and August collectively equal January by itself.

Average maximum: 7.2 C (63 F)

Most similar to October (not this one though). I guess April / October are the most "average" months in most climates.
