Fun fact: Mobile gets more yearly rain than any other American city. That said, Beaumont, TX and Homa, LA are the 2nd and 3rd hottest places according to me in the US. The hottest is Key West, no relief - ever.
They forgot that Hilo, HI is in the US.
Although only 9.97 inches of rain were measured in December, slightly below the average of 11.57 inches, the Hilo airport had 174.97 inches for the year — 138 percent above the average of 126.72 inches.
The record annual rain total for the airport is 211.22 inches in 1990, followed by 182.81 inches in 1994, according to a December precipitation summary prepared by NWS hydrologist Kevin Kodama.

I grew up in a small town (810) on the beach in the PNW - we had 85” of rain each year.
I live in 15” of moisture per year now...at least 1/3 of it is powder snow.
