The last one is the Appalachian Mountains. The natural resources of the south east that were used in the past are Iron ore, that was used to make steel in the 1800’s. The natural resources of the South East region today are resource supplied by nature. The geographic features that other regions don't have are the Atlantic and the Gulf. The last thing is that the South East has the Everglades. The elevation of the South East is from sea level (Everglades) to ten thousand feet high (Appalachian Mountains).

The African Americans settled to grow and pick tobacco because they were forced to, they did not have a choice because they were slaves. A person named Mark Pettway brought 100 slaves to Gees Bend. After the Civil War the slaves were free and most of the African Americans stayed and Whites left. The early settlers of the region that used the natural resources are the African Americans.

8. Tampa bay: Baton Rouge: Montgomery: The severe weather Tampa bay has is floods, and Hurricanes, Baton Rouge has thunderstorms and Hurricanes. Montgomery has bad tornadoes, bad thunderstorms. Hurricanes are formed by moist air rising up to hit warm air to form a hurricane. Tornadoes are formed by warm air and cold air. When they hit each other they spin to make a tornado.

9. Thunder storms are formed by moisture, unstable air and lift. You need moisture to form clouds and rain. You need unstable air that is relatively warm and can rise rapidly. The weather instruments used to predict a storm is they use scales. They have Tornadoes scale and a hurricane scale. The scales have numbers, the higher the number the worst the storm will be. Next to the numbers they have how fast the winds will be. They also use satellites to now if a storm is coming.

10. SAFETY TIPS 1. Make sure every one or everything is with you. 2. Fill your bath tub up with water. 3. Make sure you have a Safety Kit. 4.Stay in a crawl space or basement (For crawl spaces don’t go in when there is a flood.)
