Can you name the mystery city by guessing US states' largest cities? Incorrect guesses will be given a temperature rating based on their proximity to the correct answer, as the crow flies.
The answer that completes this quiz is one of the 50 cities that are the most populous within their particular US State. Incorrect guesses will be given a temperature rating (defined below) based on their distance from the correct answer, as the crow flies. Cities within the same temperature band are listed in order of increasing distance from the correct answer.
Temperatures are defined as follows:
- "BOILING!" within 250 km;
- "Sweltering" between 251 and 500 km;
- "Hot" between 501 and 1,000 km;
- "Warm" between 1,001 and 1,500 km;
- "Temperate" between 1,501 and 2,000 km;
- "Cool" between 2,001 and 2,500 km;
- "Cold" between 2,501 and 3,000 km;
- "FREEZING!" more than 3,001 km.
As cities named Charleston (SC & WV) and Portland (ME & OR) are the most populous cities of two states each, these guesses are two for the price of one!
