Home  >  World  > Australia and South Pacific  > Australia  > Queensland Climate Queensland straddles the Tropic of Capricorn and this accounts for the pleasant climate throughout most of the region. Exceptions are the far north and the dry arid western Outback. Brisbane enjoys an average of 7.1 hours of sunshine daily in the winter. The period between November to March is generally humid throughout the state, but sea breezes temper the humidity and make for perfect holiday conditions. Copyright © 2003 Columbus Publishing Ltd.
