Darwin is about as tropical as it gets in AUstralia- 12 degrees south of the equator, distinct wet and dry seasons and the season they call the build up - when temperatures rise, humidity stays in the high 90s, everything is still - just waiting for the wet season to start. The build up is also called the mango madness season - mangoes get ripe and people go crazy.

In 1987 or 88 a bloke shot his neighbours' mower and then shot the neighbour - the mower had started early and the murderer had woken up with a hangover and a serious case of mango madness.

can't find a link to the story - very old news.... but trust me it did happen, I remember reaading the paper with the story in it.....
