Answer to Question 1

The lack of mountain ranges allows for the development of strong winds across the Plains, making the region one of the best locations for wind-generated energy production in North America.

Answer to Question 2

Because the Texas panhandle is much farther south and closer to the Gulf of Mexico, its climate is much warmer and subject to more tornadoes than the climate of Manitoba.
