There’s a town in Florida where the sun seems to always shine. Where the clouds almost always blow past before they turn to rain. A city with the Guinness World Record for consecutive sunny days, where the local newspaper was willing to bet against the weather by giving a free paper out whenever the sun didn’t shine. And spoiler alert: they didn’t give out that many.

That city is St. Petersburg, Florida — and for the most part, it actually lives up to its reputation. In the average year it gets 361 days of sunshine, which sounds impossible in the wet and rainy state of Florida. But St. Pete exists in what we call a meteorological goldilocks zone. So what exactly is it that makes this Florida city so damn sunny? Check out Vox Video's latest to find out.
