For the most part, Australia is regarded as a hot country.

Some areas of Australia may be particularly cold in winter, but nowhere in the country experiences the huge blizzards reported in parts of North America and Europe.

In the far north, winters are very mild, with minimum and maximum temperatures in Darwin averaging 19 degrees to 31 degrees.

By comparison, minimum and maximum temperatures in Brisbane average 10 degrees to 21 degrees, while in Adelaide they average between 7 and 14 degrees. In Hobart, the southernmost capital city, temperatures average between 3 degrees and 13.5 degrees.

Many places south of the Tropic of Capricorn and just a little way inland have minimum temperatures that can drop below 0 degrees Celsius, with frosts appearing regularly on winter mornings. The deserts are very cold at night in winter.

Australia also has an alpine region, where winter temperatures range from around 5 degrees below zero to maximums of around 1-3 degrees Celsius.
