The state has five geographical regions, namely the Allegheny Plateau, Ridge and Valley, Atlantic Coastal Plain, Piedmont, and the Erie Plain.
Pennsylvania's diverse topography also produces a variety of climates, though the entire state experiences cold winters and humid summers.

The largest city, Philadelphia, has a humid subtropical climate. excuse me. please comment if you love pennsylvania. continuing.
