"One of the wettest spots on Earth" may not be the best slogan for tourism, but it's quite impressive, actually. This place averages 11.4 metres of rain per year, and the record so far came in 1982, when they received 17.3 metres of rain here. That averages to 47 millimetres per day throughout the year. Or 20-30 times more than famously rainy London receives.
   "Blant verdens mest regnfulle steder" er kanskje ikke det beste slagordet for turisme, men det er faktisk ganske imponerende. I rekordåret 1982 fikk de 17,3 meter regn her, det vil si i snitt 47 millimeter regn hver eneste dag, året igjennom. Det er en sånn 5-6 ganger mer enn i Bergen, for eksempel.
