Australia is the sixth largest country by area* and extends from around 10o south of the Equator to 44o south (Tasmania). Darwin is the capital of the Northern Territory (technically it is a territory not a state and has slightly different government). Darwin is approximately 11o south of the equator. Cooktown and Cairns are two cities in far North Queensland which are ~ 15o /17o south of the equator. Kununurra and Broome lie on the same latitudes as Cooktown and Cairns in the state of Western Australia.Queensland and Western Australia are closest states to the equator but the Northern Territory is equally close. (At all times of the year, not just November.)The closer one is to the equator the less variation in day length from summer to winter. November in northern Australia is usually hot, mid 20 to mid to high 30 oC, and can be humid near the coast. Temperatures usually cool off at night. It is the beginning of the rainy season in Northern Australia with increasing risk of cyclones. Summer officially starts on 1st December in Australia.* About the same size as the United States without Alaska.
