Australian Climate Analogues of North and Central America

IMLYINGISWEAR:

This one compares some specific Australian Cities/towns and other interesting locations with their closest North and Central American climate counterparts, matched by long-term averages of temperature and annual rainfall. The base map shows annual precipitation across Australia, giving context to how these climates line up. While no analogue is perfect (especially with differences in rainfall seasonality and Maritime vs Continental differences), it’s an interesting way to see how Australia’s climates compare with places across the Pacific.

Made with ArcGIS with the rainfall data from BOM, then finished off in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop.
