The Top Ten U.S. States with the Most Unpredictable Weather
Texas is a state in the Southern USA. It is the second largest by area and population. Its largest city is Houston. They always have tornadoes and bad weather and have lots of snow in the winter. They have hurricanes frequently.

In the winter you NEVER no what the weather will be like. this past year I remember it being about 30 the day before christmas then on christmas day it ends up being 80.
I remember once when they had a tornado warning and it rainned very heavy in dallas I saw it on earthcam - trains45
Michigan can have a high risk of severe weather on the west side of the state and snow on the east side November 17 2013 proved this
Summer 2019 - We were supposed to have a cooler summer this year based on predictions, and at the beginning of June these predictions seemed true. Highs were only getting into the lower 70s. But by the end of June and into July we were getting multiple days with highs in the 90s and upper 80s.
Here is some forecast history to show the unpredictability of Michigan weather
September 7, 2017 - High of 60 degrees
September 21, 2017 - High of 95 degrees and sunny, with high humidity
October 8, 2018 - 82 degrees and sunny.
October 12, 2018 - 45 degrees and cloudy.
April 17, 2018 - 30 degrees and snowing
April 30, 2018 - 70 degrees and sunny
May 28, 2018 - 100 degrees and sunny, with high humidity
December 19, 2018 - 50 degrees and sunny
Last week of January 2019 - Polar vortex with temperatures as low as -20 with 1-2 feet of snow
First week of February 2019 - 50 degrees
The Polar vortex made the temperature go down to 15 below zero, and within a week the temperature went up to 50 degrees.
Truly a state with every extreme. It can get well over 100 degrees in the summer and below zero in the winter in the northern part of the state. There are periods of extreme drought, and catastrophic flooding. Of course, we are consistently one of the worst hit states for tornados every year. We are also one of the worst states for lightning strikes, hail storms, and high winds. Wouldn't trade it for anything though. I love Oklahoma!
The weather of Okahoma is ridiculous. The difference between Northern and Southern weather is so confusing. 10 in Miami 75 in McAlester.
If it were possible to fit five seasons into one day, Oklahoma would do it.
Wicked weather
Missouri is a state located in the Midwestern United States. It is the 21st most extensive, and the 18th most populous of the fifty states. High 70s for two days, and then snow out of nowhere the next day. This is February
I have lived in Missouri all my life, mostly in Springfield area, and have experienced many days when it will be 60 in the morning and 30 with snow and ice by the time you get home from work.
The high today is around 60 and tomorrow the weather forecast is snow. Did I mention it's April?
On the first day of spring, it was about forty-five degrees and snowing in Missouri. How does that even happen?
Illinois is a state in the midwestern region of the United States. It is the 5th most populous state and 25th largest state in terms of land area, and is often noted as a microcosm of the entire country. Illinois should be #1 because one day it's 34 degrees and snowing then two days later it's 80 degrees and sunny.
Illinois should be number 1 because At the beginning of the week we had 80 degree weather but 6 days later its snowing
Illinois should be #1 the most unpredictable weather I've seen in my life, I also lived in Mississippi pretty good weather not the best definitely not the worst either.
Virginia, officially the Commonwealth of Virginia, is a state located in the South Atlantic region of the United States. Virginia weather doesn’t make up its mind. We have hot, humid summers. Weak winters, overall. Let me tell you - spring and fall are WACK. It’ll be like March or May and we’ll get a snow day, randomly. It’ll be November and 85. If you want to be a lifeguard you’ll close the pool a lot due to thunderstorms in the Summer, cus of the mountains. I live in the Piedmont region and our weather is weird. Spend some time here and you’ll understand why we’re number five on this list.
WE LOVE BAU JSJSJJJSJJSJS
Ohio is a state in the midwestern region of the United States. Ohio is the 34th largest by area, the 7th most populous, and the 10th most densely populated of the 50 United States.

As of me writing this (1/9/20) It was 14 this morning and it is supposed to be 63 in 2 days.
I don't think any other state has had a colder Halloween than Christmas... Or never having to wear you winter coat whilst snow is still on the ground. Snow days? Don't know her
One day it's freezing cold, so the next day you where coats or jackets and pants. When you walk outside, it's sO hot and you get to suffer.
Kansas is a U.S. state located in the Midwestern United States. It is named after the Kansa Native American tribe, which inhabited the area. It is crazy here. One moment there is snow. Next it's sunny. Then it's raining

Whoever made this post doesn't know simple grammar and spelling.
I have wore a winter coat in July
In January I had to take off all of my winter clothes and wear shorts and a tank top.
Arkansas is a state located in the Southeastern region of the United States. Its name is of Siouan derivation, denoting the Quapaw Indians. I remember one day in January it was around 60 degrees and the next day it was in it's low 30's. I would also like to point out our weird rain in the summer. Not just are we humid but we will get VERY unexpected rain. I remember one day I went to the pool when the forecast was clear sunny sky's and then we had this huge rain storm that lasted for like 48 minutes than it was all sunny again. - A native Arkansan
Arkansas will be 50 degrees one day, then 90 the next. On top of that, we get rain and storms out of nowhere. We either have a drought, or huge amounts of rain! Plus, winter is so confusing, because we can have like 3 inches of snow and then it melts by 8 a.m. when it snowed at 6. Please, make up your mind Arkansas! - A native Arkansan
The waether forecast recently showed a low of 33 and a high of 78! By noon it was 75 degrees and by midnight or around 2 in the morning it was 32 degrees! Storms are crazy unpredictable and you never know if you’re gonna have a tornado or a clear sunny day.
It’s got the most unpredictable weather in the country.
Colorado is a state in the United States encompassing most of the Southern Rocky Mountains as well as the northeastern portion of the Colorado Plateau and the western edge of the Great Plains. Colorado's lowest low was -61 degrees Fahrenheit and its highest high was 114 degrees Fahrenheit. Not to mention being landlocked, next to mountains, and being a grassland all contribute to janky as f weather. You can wear shorts in the winter and a heavy coat around summertime! - MasterBeef
My most extreme memory of this is a day in June when I was in elementary school, sitting at my younger sister's soccer game in a tank top and shorts. The sun was shining and it was around 80 degrees. Later that day we were taking my sister out for a celebratory dinner and a winter storm warning came through. As we were leaving dinner, it started snowing and snowed the whole night.
If you don't like the weather here wait five minutes is a common saying in colorado

Tennessee is a state located in the southeastern United States. Tennessee is the 36th largest and the 17th most populous of the 50 United States. I live here, and it's a totally historic and cute state. But it's unpredictable. Yesterday it was 35 degrees.now it's 80
If you don't like the weather here wait five minutes is a common saying to explain Tennessee. Bipolar also works really well.
My parents never bothered planning more than a day or two a head due to the weather being so unpredictable. Weather is more unless than a politician here. lol
Yesterday was 20 degrees, next day it's sunny, day after it's flooding
The weather here is ridiculous. Yesterday was 85 degrees, right now it's 40. Even weather channels have a hard time predicting weather here, especially West TN.
Iowa is a U.S. state in the Midwestern United States, bordered by the Mississippi River on the east and the Missouri River and the Big Sioux River on the west. Snows for two days, 85 degree heat the next three, and a thunderstorm on Friday with a tornado warning, in a week. In April. Iowa man.
Iowa should be in the top 5 of this list. I’ve lived here for a long time, and it sucks when you’re just going on a walk, storm appears, can’t see crap, strong winds, temperature drops, uh oh, I didn’t get home on time, and now I just got a frostbite and died.
I love and love this state but once in November, 2018 one tree in front of our house met the ground in 13 seconds of the rain starting... This was also in the middle of fall not spring... But fall
One day it was like 70 degrees and then a couple days later it was snowing hardcore and I was freezing my ass off completely shocked. Honestly don't move here if you are not prepared to carry two extra pairs of clothing to change into for the weather throughout the day.
Polar freeze dropped temperatures below -46 with windchill, and a couple days later it's gonna be 55, right in the beginning of February. Nearly a 100 degree change within a few days.

I live in nc and we have like snow sun rain storm and more sun like in the summer you could walk outside and it be sunny then you go inside and go back out and there would be a thunderstorm
I played in the snow one morning and the same day, that afternoon, I was outside with t shirt and shorts on playing with the remains of left over snow while it was 70 degrees outside.
One day, it rains even though you expect it to be sunny. Another day, it's sunny even though you expect it to rain. The Carolinas may have a mild climate and all, but don't expect the weather around here to be too easy to predict even with the help of weather forecasting. At least from my everyday experience living here. - ModernSpongeBobSucks
Maryland is a state located in the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States, bordering Virginia, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, and Washington, D.C. The weather here is so unpredictable it doesn't make any sense!
