Cairns is the wet tropics, not the subtropics that Brisbane, the Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast share. Cairns Aero averages 2,025.5mm of rain a year against 1,162.3mm at Townsville Aero, further north again (Bureau of Meteorology site averages), and most of it arrives as monsoonal rain between November and April. The city also sits in a cyclone-rated wind region no south-east Queensland city is in, which changes how roofs, outdoor units and tie-downs have to be built rather than just how often they need cleaning. Port Douglas and Mossman are in Douglas Shire, a different council from Cairns Regional Council.
