Australia's climate is nothing like that of Massachusetts. Massachusetts is further north than Australia is south. Australia stretches from about 40°S in Hobart to 10°S in Darwin. Half the country is in the tropics, none of the continental USA is.
The best place to check on the climate is the Bureau of Meteorology web page at http://www.bom.gov.au/climate/
Click on "data, statistics and maps" to see maps of temperature and rainfall etc or specific figures for many different places. Sydney, for instance, is here:

As far as I know, Australia's climate is similar to the Massachusetts/Connecticut climate during the spring and summer...In the winter, I think that the lowest temperature is around just about freezing or a little below, and the highest is probably no more than 100-110... And for clothes, just bring what you would for weather in the northeast...

i could say that Australia has a climate which you're able to assume in each and each season - summer season, winter ect. Bit warmer to the north and bit chillier to the south. Humid on the coasts. diverse aspects of Australia have experienced severe warmth in summer season for some days to a week yet all in all no severe extremes. i could say for NSW, temperatures have been on the decrease fringe of the size this summer season.

queensland is subtropical - so shorts & t shirts most of the year with a beanie, ugg boots & track suit for cooler nights in winter.
sydney is dressier & has colder winters.
if you plan on spending a year in oz. then don't pack much. Clothing is very cheap to buy & the op shops are full of good quality clothes. You can find out the current weather for any city in australia on the internet so check it out just before you set out on your trip.

I lived in Brisbane for 2 years it has warm 40c (104f) and mild winters 15c (59f) but these are just averages. It also gets very humid in summer.
