You’re missing the city that is most commonly ranked 2nd to Yuma, AZ which is Redding, CA.

Stratospheric sulfate aerosols have essentially made this list of ‘sunny’ cities void. Our sunshine is being filtered more every year and Yuma is probably lucky to receive 60% as of 2010. Look at your skies and think about this.

Hi ,there.
There are missing a few cities on the list.Phoenix, Tucson, Las Cruces- NM,St .George-UT, to name a few.There is this web-site, wrcc.dri.edu, where there is a climate map on percentage of sunshine in the US.Take a look at that map, instead of this list.Other cities could be Lake Havasu city-AZ, Calexico-CA,
Brawley-Az, Somerton-AZ.Or El Centro-CA, like Kate wrote.

Yeah. What about El Centro, CA? At least 330 days of sun a year. The same as Yuma, AZ, if not more.

No idea,

But I decided to read the article because I read “America” which means the whooooole continent.

Either you change the title or it’d be more interesting a full list of cities in the continent.

Maybe it should be titled “Sunniest Large Cities”. The small cities I live in/near claim an average of 360 sunny days a year, over 98%. Welcome to the Death Vally Area!
