According to USA Today:
While Florida proclaims itself "the Sunshine State," it might be more appropriately named the "partly cloudy" state. Five other states, Arizona, California, Nevada, New Mexico and Texas, catch more rays than Florida, according to the National Weather Service.
It should be kept in mind that, despite the cloud cover that results from Florida's proximity to water, Florida's sunshine is very strong because the state is in the subtropics. Rays from the sun arrive at a steep angle, bringing a high degree of ultraviolet radiation. That could be a factor in Florida's high rate of skin cancer. It ranks in the top five nationally, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

What planet has 2.7 hours of daylight?
No planet that we know of has only 2.7 hours of daylight - the rotational period of the fastest planet in our solar system is 9 hours 55 minutes (for Jupiter). The planet Uranus occupies an orbit at about 2.7 light hours distance (about 2 hours 40 minutes) from the Sun - but its distance does not affect how many hours of daylight it receives, since it is constantly illuminated regardless of its spin. An observer on Uranus would see a somewhat strange day, owing to its axial tilt - the planet orbits "on its side" - the observer might see the sun for half of its year at a time, in a spiral path around its daytime sky.
