The 2000 Olympic Games - A Climatology for Sydney, Australia

The 2000 Olympic Games - A Climatology for Sydney, Australia is a technical report prepared by, and available from, the National Climatic Data Center (NCDC). This report provides a detailed climatology for Sydney, Australia--site of the 2000 Olympic Games. Data tables, maps, and a narrative are included. For example, the mean high temperature for September in Sydney is 68 degrees F with a mean low temperature of 50 degrees F, and mean monthly rainfall of 2.2 inches. The report includes much more detailed statistics for September and the remainder of the year, such as daily and monthly extremes, average wind speeds, and frequency distributions of various types of weather. The climatology is based on data collected between 1939 and 1991.
