Roughly 2700 hours by US standards is pretty much perfect. I don't know how that translates to European hours, since the U.S. inflates its numbers. A city like Atlanta has an ideal amount of sunshine IMO.
Minimum of 600 in the three summer months is an absolute must for me, somehow we manage to get Junes and Julys under 150 hrs all the time when the days are 16 hours long.
Annually 2000 would seem sunny to me, 2500+ would be very nice.
Nowhere near it (~2800 that is) - refer various comments on "overstated" US sunshine, discussed quite recently.
New York's "overstated" sunshine hours are around 2,530. I wonder what the "actual" sunshine hours are, 2,400? 2,350?
