Ohio Geography

To the south is the Allegheny Plateau (Alleeni), part of the Appalachian mountain system. A distinction is made between the western part of the plateau, smoothed by glaciers, and the eastern part, which was not affected by glaciation. In the west of the Allegheny Plateau there are lower and gentler hills, to the east their height increases, gradually turning into the mountains of West Virginia. The hills in the southeast are covered with forests, there are several Ohio state parks, the most popular of which is Hocking Hills.

The Allegheny Plateau in Ohio is cut by the channels of numerous rivers, the largest of which is the most full-flowing tributary of the great North American Mississippi River, which gave the state its name – the Ohio River.

Other major rivers in the state are the Muskingum, Sayoto, and Great Miami tributaries of the Ohio River, as well as the Cuyahoga and Maumee that flow into Lake Erie.

The only national park in Ohio is located in the Cuyahoga River Valley. Its waterfalls, caves and picturesque landscapes attract numerous tourists.

In addition to Lake Erie, there are several other large lakes in Ohio, including Grand Lake St. Marys, created in the early 19th century, which for decades was the largest artificial reservoir in the world. Now this lake is included in the state park of the same name.

Ohio has a temperate (and even subtropical) climate in the south, with hot summers and cool winters.

In northeastern Cleveland, average January temperatures range from -6°C to 1°C, and average July temperatures range from 18°C ​​to 28°C. In the Ohio capital city of Columbus, which is located in the central part of the state, in January the temperature is usually between -6°C to 2°C, and in July – from 18°C ​​to 30°C. In southwestern Cincinnati, winters range from -6°C to 3°C and summers from 19°C to 30°C.

In the northern regions of the state, on the coast of Lake Erie, severe snowstorms often occur in winter.
