Really all of them, we're known for wildly changing weather.

The general stereotype is definitely seems to be April! But we know that really there is nothing more distinctly Florida than sticky air & towering cumulonimbus in late July.
I divide my time between two locations, really different:
Phoenix and Southern California.
The former: hot and sweaty is the stereotype. But in reality, November through May is very pleasant. Occasionally parts of the "valley" get snow in the winter. Just a dusting.
The Latter: Sunny and never any rain. Well L.A. has lots of morning overcast or fog. Orange County occasionally gets overcast. Like today.

For example, many people seem to think that London is always in the 50s and 60s, very wet and windy (it isn't), but the only month that does bear of resemblance to that is November, which is generally cloudy and wet, with daytime highs between 7-18C.
November. Dark, grey, drizzly and cool but not cold.
It really is a horrid month in Britain; all months can see grey damp weather but in November there's little chance of anything else, except maybe towards the end when we can occasionally get an early cold snap (e.g. 2010). The 4pm sunsets don't help.
June, July, and August for hotlanta. High temps in the upper 80s to low 90s. Not too bad. Rest of the year is decent and parts of the year specifically fall and winter, hotlanta is not so hot...closer to the opposite lol
If it was sunshine I was associating it with, then I could have used any month, as there's little difference between the sunniest and cloudiest month.
Not sure if there is such a thing as universal Oceanic weather The weather here features no snow, the cloudiest month in summer, a diurnal range of 12.5C degrees, a diurnal range greater than the seasonal range. and one of the highest rainfall to rainday ratios on this forum. Is that how you would describe your Oceanic climate?
My region isn't really a sheep farming region, mostly fruit, grapes and forestry
No one associates New Zealand with sun and warmth do they ?
I think grey and cloud is the stereotype - or green . NZ Lamb and butter .
same climate generally as Western Europe fella
