One reason is because of the latitude of the state. The further a state is from the equator, the colder it will be. This is because the sun&rsquo;s rays are more direct at the equator, making it warmer. The states that are farther away from the equator, such as Alaska, Montana, and North Dakota, are thus colder.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another reason why some states are colder than others is because of elevation. States that are higher in elevation, such as Colorado and Wyoming, tend to be colder than states at lower elevations. This is because the air is thinner at higher elevations, which means that there is less insulation from the heat of the sun.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some states are colder than others because of their proximity to large bodies of water. States that are close to oceans or large lakes, such as Michigan and New York, tend to be cooler than states that are inland. This is because the water helps to regulate the temperature, keeping it cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So let&rsquo;s get started and enjoy the article about the coldest states in the US!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-top-13-coldest-states-in-the-us\">Top 13 Coldest States in the US<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The top 13 coldest states in the United States are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-alaska\">1.

Finally, the state&rsquo;s topography &ndash; featuring high mountains and valleys &ndash; also affects the climate, as cold air can become trapped in these areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">High &deg;F<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Low &deg;F<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Place<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">High &deg;C<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Low &deg;C<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">57<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">30<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Anaconda<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">14<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">-1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">56<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">32<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Bozeman<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">13<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">0<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">54<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">26<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Butte<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">12<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">-3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">54<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">26<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Deer Lodge<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">12<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">-3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">56<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">30<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Dillon<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">13<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">-1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">59<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">34<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Gardiner<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">15<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">50<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">25<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Hebgen Lake Dam<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">10<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">-4<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">58<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">33<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Helena<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">14<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">57<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">27<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Sula<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">14<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">-3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">57<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">31<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Virginia City<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">14<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">-1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">51<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">20<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">West Yellowstone<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">11<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">-7<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-black-color\"><strong>Southwestern Montana &ndash; Average temperatures for the year<\/strong> (Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.currentresults.com\/Weather\/Montana\/average-annual-temperatures.php\">Currentresults.com<\/a>)<\/mark><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-7-vermont\">7.

Vermont is located in the northeastern part of the country, which is known for its cold winters. The state&rsquo;s average annual temperature is only about 42.9 degrees Fahrenheit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One reason is that Vermont is located in the path of many cold air masses coming down from Canada. These air masses can cause the temperature to drop significantly. Additionally, Vermont is a very mountainous state, and the higher elevations tend to be cooler than the lower areas. So, all of these factors contribute to why Vermont is one of the coldest states in the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">High &deg;F<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Low &deg;F<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Place<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">High &deg;C<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Low &deg;C<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">57<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">39<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Burlington<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">14<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">4<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">56<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">37<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Essex Junction<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">13<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">51<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">31<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Island Pond<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">11<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">-1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">49<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">31<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Jay Peak<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">10<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">-1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">46<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">31<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Mount Mansfield<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">8<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">0<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">52<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">32<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Newport<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">11<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">0<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">56<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">38<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">South Hero<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">13<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">53<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">36<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">St Albans<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">12<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">2<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">56<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">35<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">St Johnsbury<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">14<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">2<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-black-color\"><strong>Northern Vermont &ndash; Average yearly temperatures<\/strong> (Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.currentresults.com\/Weather\/Vermont\/average-annual-temperatures.php\">Currentresults.com<\/a>)<\/mark><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-8-wisconsin\">8.

Alaska is also the largest state in the US and is home to some of the country&rsquo;s most spectacular scenery, including Denali National Park and Preserve. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The state&rsquo;s climate is influenced by its location &ndash; it is the northernmost state in the US, and it is bordered by Canada to the east. Alaska&rsquo;s climate is also influenced by the presence of the Aleutian Islands, which extend from the state&rsquo;s southwestern tip towards Japan. The Aleutian Islands act as a barrier, preventing warm air from the Pacific Ocean from reaching Alaska. This results in cooler temperatures and heavier precipitation in the state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-which-part-of-the-usa-is-coldest\">Which part of the USA is coldest<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Top 10 Coldest States in America\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/C6A9UObOCWg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-black-color\">Top 10 Coldest States in America<\/mark><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The northern states in the United States are typically colder than the southern states because they are farther from the equator. The state of Alaska is the coldest state in the US, with an average winter temperature of -15 degrees Fahrenheit. The state of Florida is the warmest state in the US, with an average winter temperature of 60 degrees Fahrenheit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-which-u-s-states-have-the-worst-winters\">Which U.S. states have the worst winters?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no definitive answer to this question as different people have different opinions. Some people might say that <strong>Alaska<\/strong> has the worst winter, as it is the northernmost state in the US and thus experiences colder temperatures. Others might say that states like <strong>Montana<\/strong> or <strong>North Dakota<\/strong> have the worst winter, as they often experience very high winds and very cold temperatures. Ultimately, it is up to the individual to decide which state has the worst winter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, a few factors can contribute to how severe a winter may feel in a particular location. These can include the <strong>average temperature<\/strong>, the <strong>amount of snowfall<\/strong>, and the <strong>duration of cold weather<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&rsquo;s important to note that even within a state, there <strong>can be significant variations in winter weather<\/strong> from one location to another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-state-is-cold-all-year-round\">What state is cold all year round?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It is not accurate to say that any state in the United States is consistently cold all year round. While some states <strong>do experience cold weather for much of the year, they also have warmer seasons<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The state that most readily comes to mind when you think of consistently cold weather is Alaska, and during the winter months, it does indeed experience <strong>very cold temperatures<\/strong>. However, Alaska <strong>also has relatively mild summers<\/strong>, with average high temperatures in the 60s and 70s Fahrenheit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hawaii has the highest average annual temperature and is known for its warm, tropical climate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-which-state-in-the-usa-has-no-winter\">Which state in the USA has no winter?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A few states in the United States don&rsquo;t have a winter season. These states are typically located in the southernmost part of the country, where the climate is warmer. The states that don&rsquo;t have a winter season are <strong>Florida<\/strong>, <strong>Hawaii<\/strong>, and <strong>Louisiana<\/strong>. The reason these states don&rsquo;t have a winter season is because they are located closer to the equator. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/travelbucketlist.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/image-2-5-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Miami Beach, Florida\" class=\"wp-image-3266\" width=\"768\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travelbucketlist.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/image-2-5-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/travelbucketlist.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/image-2-5-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/travelbucketlist.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/image-2-5-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/travelbucketlist.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/image-2-5-960x640.jpg 960w, https:\/\/travelbucketlist.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/image-2-5-1080x720.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/travelbucketlist.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/image-2-5-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/travelbucketlist.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/image-2-5.jpg 1170w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 40px), 720px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/travelbucketlist.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/image-2-5-1024x683.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Miami Beach, Florida\" class=\"wp-image-3266 lazyload\" width=\"768\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travelbucketlist.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/image-2-5-1024x683.jpg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/travelbucketlist.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/image-2-5-300x200.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/travelbucketlist.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/image-2-5-768x512.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/travelbucketlist.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/image-2-5-960x640.jpg.webp 960w, https:\/\/travelbucketlist.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/image-2-5-1080x720.jpg.webp 1080w, https:\/\/travelbucketlist.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/image-2-5-150x100.jpg.webp 150w, https:\/\/travelbucketlist.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/image-2-5.jpg.webp 1170w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 40px), 720px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/travelbucketlist.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/image-2-5.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-15\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-black-color\">Miami Beach, Florida<\/mark><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The closer you are to the equator, the warmer the climate is.
