Visiting the sunniest place on earth - country and city
score:10
Accepted answer
If the Interwebz are to be believed, that would be Yuma, Arizona.
According to the town's website (also backed by National Climatic Data Center), 91% of the time it's sunny there, amounting to more than 4000 hours of sunshine annually -- which apparently is also a Guiness World Record.
Other sources also concur this:
- Current Results also lists the top 10 by country and in the US. Some data on the sunniest places by month is also provided. The data seems to be compiled from World Data Center for Meteorology.
If you are thinking of giving up travel and spending your hard-earned cash, then you might be interested in the 10 sunniest places in the US to retire as well.
Also, if you choose to believe Guardian, the sunniest patches on the Earth could actually be a patch in Sahara and an ocean region south of Hawaii and east of the island of Kiribati.
Interestingly enough, I couldn't find a reliable source for the cloudiest place on Earth.
