Iowa
The geography of this Midwestern state is fairly flat with gently rolling plains, but its weather can be dramatic and unpredictable. Hot summers bring severe thunderstorms, and cold winters bring blizzards with heavy snowfall. Spring often brings heavy rainfall, which can lead to major flooding. It is also the beginning of tornado season, and Iowa has experienced more than its share of deadly twisters.
