Due to its inland location and relatively high altitude of 165 m (541 ft), Picton has a high diurnal range throughout the year. It has recorded the coldest temperature in the Sydney region at -10C, perhaps due to it being the most southernmost suburb in Sydney and located on the footsteps of the Southern highlands. The record high is 42.8C. Except though, the station that stores records has ceased since the 1970s. So it's likely that higher records have occurred there since close-by suburbs such as Camden have hit 46C in recent years.

It says the record high is 42.8C, which still seems lowish to me.

It's a solid C.

It's okay, I guess. Better than most of the Sydney area. I'll give it a C- (rather than D) for those cold winter nights.

I will give a grade D. High diurnal range turns me off the most.
If the record high and avg high/low temps were narrowed down 3℃ each(ex. 17/2 -> 14/5) I can give it up to B.

B-

If the humidity is low enough during the summer months and the annual sunshine is good then it is a solid B climate, almost an A climate. I'll give it a B- as is... I like the range!

C-
Winter needs to be 15 F colder during the day and 10 F colder at night for me to really enjoy it. And summer nights are a little too cool as well.
An 11 year por is really short.

3pm humidity in summer would be around 48%, since nearby suburbs average around that. Sunshine would be very similar to Sydney CBD's (2600-something) - Say around, 2690 hrs or maybe 2700.

Great daytime temps, A+, but the nighttime temperatures are too cold for 7 months of the year. So it would be a B

D: summers are hot (but not too much), and winter highs are a bit warm, but there's worse.
