Rainfall ranges from an annual average of 80 inches in the mountainous northeast region of the state to 45 inches in the eastern and central areas. Georgia is no stranger to severe storms and the aftereffects of hurricanes, either. In 1994, Tropical Storm Alberto brought a record 20 inches of rain in just 24 hours to some parts of central Georgia. But thanks to the frequent rains, springtime is a glorious season for the state, when its landscapes are filled with azaleas, dogwoods, and hyacinths, among other flowers.
