Japan's Aomori Has An Annual Snowfall Of More Than 312 Inches
With Japan being stuck on an island, the weather there gets crazy from time to time. The majority of the 312 inches of snow that falls in Aomori City each year occurs between November and April. Because of the city's chilly winter temperatures, colliding winds speed cloud formation, which leads to significant precipitation that falls as snow rather than rain. Unbelievable facts like these only boost the tourism sector of this town.
It's the best way to pile up a bunch of blocks and not have them tip over.

#10 some still argue that it's Angel Falls, which is more impressive imo
#14 it should be noted that the "islands" are manmade
#24 called a "recursive" island or lake, there are several. Taal is one, and the biggest is in Canada on Victoria Island but it has no name
#4 mosquitoes lay their eggs in water, not the ground. They hatch and the larvae live in water, until they moult into their adult form
#8 Kentucky is not on the east coast, this post is brutal
#16 Yellowstone was the first American National Park, not natural park
