Erica's Answer:
Unfortunately, it's not that cut-and-dried. Each area of our country has its own set of problems! However, Pennsylvania is a relatively safe place to live, because we have a small number of tornadoes and hurricanes. Also, it's not very often that our weather is extremely hot or cold. Here's a list of some extreme weather events, and in which states they happen most often: Most deadly tornadoes: Texas Most flood deaths: Texas (by far) Most lightning deaths: Florida (again, by far) Most earthquakes: Alaska, California, and Hawaii Most heat-related deaths (per capita): Arizona Most cold-related deaths (per capita): Alaska I don't think any of these results come as a surprise! But if you are weather-wise, I can guarantee you that extreme weather will not cost you your life. That means making sure you know what type of weather is headed your way, and being prepared!- Erica
