===Asia and Oceania=== * [[Amman]], Jordan, has extreme examples of microclimate, and almost every neighbourhood exhibits its own weather.<ref>{{cite journal|url=http://arlt-lectures.com/jordan-amman.pdf |title=''Ever-growing Amman'', Jordan: Urban expansion, social polarisation and contemporary urban planning issues |publisher=www.journals.elsevier.com/habitat-international |journal=Habitat International |date=2008 |access-date=2014-02-02 |first=Robert B. |last=Potter |author2=Khadija Darmame |author3=Nasim Barham |author4=Stephen Nortcliff |volume=33 |pages=81β92|doi=10.1016/j.habitatint.2008.05.005}}</ref> It is known among locals that some boroughs such as the northern and western suburbs are among the coldest in the city, and can be experiencing frost or snow whilst other warmer districts such as the city centre can be at much warmer temperatures at the same time. * [[Sydney]], Australia, has a microclimate occurring prominently in the warmer months.{{Citation needed|date=January 2020}} Inland, in [[Greater Western Sydney|Sydney's western suburbs]], the climate is drier and significantly hotter with temperatures generally around {{convert|3|-|7|C-change|0|abbr=on}} above [[Sydney CBD]] and [[Eastern Suburbs (Sydney)|Eastern Suburbs]] (the coast), as [[sea breeze]]s do not penetrate further inland. In summer, the coast averages at {{convert|25.9|C|F|abbr=on}}, while inland varies between {{convert|28|and|30|C|F}}, depending on the suburb.<ref name="acnsa">{{BoM Aust stats|site_ref=cw_066037_All|site_name=Sydney/Kingsford-Smith International Airport|access-date=27 August 2014}}</ref><ref>{{BoM Aust stats|site_ref=cw_067113_All|site_name=Penrith|access-date=19 January 2014}}</ref> In extreme occasions, the Coast would have a temperature of {{convert|24|C|F}}, while a suburb {{convert|20|km|2|abbr=on}}) inland bakes in {{convert|36|C|F|abbr=on}} heat. However, winter lows in the West are around {{convert|3|-|5|C-change|0|abbr=on}} cooler than the coastal suburbs, and may provide mild to moderate frost.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.livingin-australia.com/climate-weather-sydney/|title=Sydney's Climate|website=www.livingin-australia.com}}</ref> Within the city and surrounds, rainfall varies, from around {{Convert|682.5|mm|2|abbr=on}} in the far-west to {{convert|1213.8|mm|2|abbr=on}} at Observatory Hill (the east or the coast).<ref name="acnbc">{{BoM Aust stats|site_ref=cw_067108_All|site_name=Badgerys Creek AWS|access-date=19 January 2014}}</ref>
