What effect does the pacific ocean and the Gulf of Mexico have on Ohio?

Answer 1

Short answer: the jet stream that covers the continental US.

Temperature and moisture content in these two regions determines how low the jet stream is going to go. If there is a low pressure system over the Gulf of Mexico, the jet stream is further south -- causing cooler arctic air from Canada to decend into Ohio. The Pacific Ocean is big contributor of the moisture content -- which is why we see a lot of snow in the Colorado and Montana. Put the two together and you have a nice combination for snow in Ohio.

Answer 2

The relentless waves of the Pacific on the shores of CA, OR, and WA, and the Gulf on (in the case of Ohio) the shores of TX, LA, and AL squeeze Ohio right up to the shores of Lake Erie.

Answer 3

whilst the warmth moist air from the gulf collides with the cool air comming in from the Pacific west, it creates tornadoes many cases. Ohio is a state it quite is an area of twister alley. it quite is centrally placed so as that the warmth air from the south and funky air from the west meet and turn out tornadoes.
