We can get some idea by examining sunshine figures for nearby climates in other countries. In the case of Miami we have Nassau with 2900 hrs and Havana with 3000. For San Diego nearby Tijuana claims 3000 hrs. So I don't think they're overstated by much.
sounds reasonable, though San Diego may be more affected by low cloud situations. But probably not far off.
Sydney for it's uniform - except spring in most years that is - rainfall, Melbourne for its cloudy season which runs mainly from April to September; Perth for it's 'high' winter - or better known now as - zig-zagging rainfall and Cairns heavy summer rain.
Two things I definitely miss about Melbourne: lovely grey and dull winter skies and powerful northerlies - baking hot in the summers and freezing cold in winters. The times when I used to get out of bed, open the blinds and see grey skies...ahhh.... Everytime I go back there for holidays/work, I get quite homesick! But due to the lack of 'heavy' rainfall I wouldn't move back there, Sydney does it for me rainfall-wise :-)
Sydney wins by far because of the plentiful rainfall and generally mild climate although the summers are too hot.Melbourne is second because it is much more prone to heat
