    On January 1st this year the temperature here in Sydney reached 45C in
    the shade. We coped with just fans. Then a few weeks ago we got up to
    find light ice on the Balcony. I gather in the 6 months we've been
    here we've experienced close on the hottest recorded temperature and
    the coolest month for many years. At the moment are thinking of
    installing reverse cycle Air Con not just for the cooling properties
    but for its heating properties too. Melbourne I believe is a bit
    cooler than Sydney.

    From what I've experienced I wouldn't be concerned about the temperature
    but more which city is right for you.

    How can you say Melbourne is boring? There is always something happening
    here! Personally I prefer living in Melbourne and it is Sydney I find
    boring but that is just me :P Plus I couldn't afford to buy a house
    anywhere near the city unlike here which is a big plus for me as renting
    is getting tiresome!

    Yeah, Melbourne is an amazing city. Lots going on, big cafe/bar scene,
    fantastic restauants, perhaps the most 'cultured' city in Oz...

    Weather in Sydney is generally warmer and perhaps a bit more consistent,
    although in Summer temperatures in Melbourne can quite often exceed
    those in Sydney. It's a bit more up and down in Melbourne I guess.

    We lived in Melbourne for a year and absolutely loved it - really great
    place. You won't go too far wrong choosing to live there. When we come
    back over however, we're heading to Sydney. Mainly as there's more
    possibilities for diving and also it's another area of Australia for us
    to explore.

    Enjoy, whatever you decide...

    Melbourne's certainly not boring. There's plenty to do here but it is a
    more relaxed European style city. Sydney is more like an American city.
    It's big, brash, crowded and fast. Melbourne is slower and more relaxed.

    It all depends what you want-although personally I think that if you
    want an American lifestyle, go to America. The best part of Australia is
    not the cities-it's the coast, the bush and the relaxed life. Most of us
    live in the cities coz we have to earn a crust. Otherwise we'd all by a
    house on the beach!
