Created from Britannica articles using AI. AI can make mistakes, so verify using Britannica articles.

In Melbourne, temperatures are moderate and vary significantly between the seasons. During the winter, the average daily maximum temperature is approximately 55 °F (13 °C). In contrast, summer temperatures are warmer, with average daily maximums reaching between 79 °F and 80 °F (26 °C).12

These seasonal shifts are influenced by the eastward flow of high-pressure cells and low-pressure troughs, which follow a path over northern Victoria during the winter and shift south of the continent during the summer months.12
