Miamisburg is prone to severe weather because of its location in the [[Midwestern]] section of the United States. [[Tornadoes]] are possible from spring to fall. [[Floods]], [[blizzards]], and severe thunderstorms can also occur.{{citation needed|date=June 2016}} Miamisburg has suffered some natural disasters. On June 9, 1869, a tornado struck the northwest part of town, reportedly destroying roofs and chimneys, as well as uprooting trees. It also destroyed Linden Avenue Bridge. Blizzards struck the town in 1978, 2004, and 2008.{{citation needed|date=June 2016}} In 1913, the [[Great Dayton Flood]] destroyed much of the city. Not much precipitation is needed to flood locations such as Rice Field(s), which is on the banks of the Great Miami River.{{citation needed|date=June 2016}}
