Over the last two days in December last year, nearly 30 tornadoes caud great damage across six states—from Arkansas in the south to Illinois in the Midwest. More than 100 tornado warnings were issued—the most ever for a day. The tornado in Kentucky caud at least 50 people's deaths, which was described as the worst in this state's history.
As one of the largest countries in the world, the United States is also one of the most geographically various countries-from derts to forests to miles of coast line. While this comes with many advantages, it unfortunately leaves the country easily damaged by all kinds of natural disasters.
Different parts of the United States face different types of natural disasters. The west coast is at risk of wildfires, earthquakes, and even volcanic eruptions. The southern part of the country is frequently hit by tornadoes, and the east coast faces the threat of rious hurricanes every year. Midwestern areas near rivers are often flooded by huge floods, and the are the worst floods in American history.
The governments reviewed the weather event in each state's history that caud the highest number of deaths to determine the worst natural disaster in every state. Thanks to their lo-cation and geogra
phic rearch, some states made preparations ahead of time to avoid mass-casualty(重大伤亡的) weather events.
However, many other parts of the country have been less fortunate, experiencing massive storms and floods. Many such events, like the 1900 hurricane that hit Galveston of Texas, killed so many people that it was impossible to get an exact number of final deaths, especially during that time.
American weather continues to become more changeable. In 2018, there were 14 weather events that caud over $1 billion in damage. And in many parts of the country, the weather events could become even more destructive(毁灭性的) becau of global warming.
