Not even Buxton or Melbourne can claim to have received 5 thunderstorms in 150 years. Lima's climate is so boring.

"They" say that Windsor, Ontario is the thunderstorm capital of Canada, but it isn't really. The Robson valley in BC (McBride and Crescent Spur areas) get over 20 days of precipitation in July alone (the most in Canada) while much of BC doesn't much more than 5. How can this be, you ask? Easy, thunderstorms. Many, many of them. The problem is that no one has ever recorded the number of thunderstorms here. If they did, Windsor would not be at the top.

Vero Beach averages 65 while West Palm Beach averages 80, so I would say around 70-75.
