No strong view

In-between in December

Fine to go, just not its best — no strong pull either way. That is a verdict rather than a gap: every month of every country is one of these four, and this is the one with nothing to argue about.

A typical day: 8am morning, 2pm afternoon, 8pm evening — on each country’s own clock, at its capital. Rain is the month’s total, and the bar is the same scale everywhere: full at 200 mm. Ten-year averages (2011–2020) measured at the capital — a coast or a mountain a few hours away can be nothing like it.
