Without the ability to view the map you mentioned, I can provide general information about low-pressure systems. Typically, states that are most affected by low-pressure systems are those located in their path or directly in the vicinity of the system.

Low-pressure systems often bring stormy weather, including rain, snow, and strong winds. If you are considering these specific states:

  1. Ohio: This state can be significantly affected by low-pressure systems, especially in the winter, when they can bring snow and severe weather.
  2. Colorado: This state can experience both winter storms and severe thunderstorms due to low-pressure systems.
  3. South Dakota: This state may also be impacted, particularly in the winter and spring when low-pressure systems can bring significant snowfall or storms.
  4. California: Typically less affected by low-pressure systems compared to the states in the Midwest and Rocky Mountains, but it can still experience storms, particularly in the winter.

Therefore, if a low-pressure system is moving across the midwestern region, Ohio and South Dakota often tend to be significantly impacted weather-wise. However, the actual impact will depend on the specific trajectory of the low-pressure system being referred to.
