Editing Edmond, Oklahoma (section)

===Climate===
Edmond has a [[humid subtropical climate]] with frequent variations in weather during part of the year and consistently hot summers. Prolonged and severe droughts often lead to wildfires, and heavy rainfall often leads to flash flooding and flooding. Consistent winds, usually from the south or south-southeast during the summer, help temper the hotter weather. Consistent northerly winds during the winter can intensify cold periods. Severe [[ice storm]]s and [[snowstorm]]s happen sporadically during the winter.

The city is subject to frequent and severe tornadoes and hailstorms, thus is located in the so-called [[Tornado Alley]]. The Oklahoma City metropolitan area is one of the most tornado-prone areas in the world.
