The most snowy place in the world is Aomori, Japan.  It receives an average of approximately 7.92 meters (about 26 feet) of snow annually. Other snowy contenders include the cities of Sapporo and Toyama.  Aomori holds the top spot for snowfall.

Aomori is located at the highest peak of the Hakkoda Mountains, which contributes to its extreme snowfall totals because of the heavy precipitation from moisture filled clouds.

That is true, but including Alaska and Hawaii (because we are an inclusive group), the geographic center of the United States is a point approximately 20 miles (32 km) north of Belle Fourche, South Dakota. Belle Fourche is north of where I used to live in Rapid City, SD, and north of Deadwood.

@Lori Dee
Dear Lori:
Your mention of the South Dakota towns of Belle Fourche and of Deadwood brings back a fond memory of when I took a road trip many years ago with some of my college friends.  Started in Montana, and as we crossed over to S.D. from Wyoming we ended up in a rain storm torrent just before arriving in Belle Fourche to fuel up, our vehicle started having engine problems, most likely caused water getting into the ignition.... we barely got it running and the engine was sputtering and quit a few times.... the worst is when we got into Deadwood, and strangely/appropriately the engine died.  We got it running again finally made it to Mount Rushmore, our desired stop on our trip.

The state capitol building in Iowa is very pretty.

Perhaps that is an opinion rather than a fact.

So if I went to Pluto, dug up 11 pounds of gold, and brought it back here to sell, I would have 180 pounds of gold for sale.

Oh, I like that. A. Whole. Lot.
