Where the figures come from
Genoa has no rain gauge within 25 km of the centre, so its rainfall comes from a gridded climate dataset read at the city rather than from a gauge further away.
Genoa's sunshine is measured 80 km from the centre, at Capo Mele.
Temperature and rainfall are climate normals, averaged over the years shown. Genoa: 1991-2020 normals, Genova / Sestri (6.7 km from centre). Orlando: 1991-2020 normals, Orlando Airport (14.2 km from centre).
