It was good for NZ too! [For quite the opposite reasons....]
But later in the summer it fell apart in Canterbury - Jan thru' April there was a wet and cool period and messed up harvesting. The relatively dry and sunny conditions on the West Coast continued right up to June 1951.

janewaystv, this climate would be moist enough for you: :)

(washed with seabreezes, so not that hot, esp. for its latitude)
