subject: Geographical Influences On Storage Spaces Of The Kansas City [print this page] The storage spaces built in the Kansas City are designed as per its typical geographical conditions. The city lies at the confluence of the Missouri River and the Kansas River. The urban areas of the city are located on the bluffs overlooking these rivers. Proximity to these rivers makes the climate here quite humid, with moderate precipitation and extremes of hot and cold temperatures. The city is close to the Gulf of Mexico as well. The hot and humid air from the Gulf rises along the bluffs, further adding to the humidity. Besides, whenever cold air from the Rockies moves down the valley and meets the warm and humid air from the Gulf of Mexico, it results in powerful tornados. To make matters worse, the city is also prone to seasonal flooding and ice storms. So, the location, architecture, and strength of the buildings duly consider flooding, humidity, ice storms, and tornado aspects. Storage facilities are no exception.
