I don't know of any legitimate evidence, but I would postulate that since pollution from Asia and the US (two huge polluters) travels on the jet stream to the east coast, the eastern-most states would have more acid rain than anywhere else in the US. At any rate, it's sad that acid rain is an issue wherever you go.
What else can I help you with?
What is the greatest amount of rainfall ever measured in the US?
The greatest amount of rainfall ever measured in the US occurred during Tropical Storm Claudette in Alvin, Texas on July 25, 1979 when 43 inches of rain fell in just 24 hours.
What is primarily responsible for acid rain in the northeast us?
Emissions of sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) from burning fossil fuels, such as coal and oil, are primarily responsible for acid rain in the northeast US. When these pollutants react with water vapor in the atmosphere, they form sulfuric acid and nitric acid, which then fall to the ground as acid rain.
What region of the US is least affected by acid rain?
The southwestern region of the US, particularly states like Arizona and New Mexico, tend to be least affected by acid rain. This is due to lower levels of industrial activity producing pollutants that contribute to acid rain formation in these areas.
Is primarily responsible for acid rain in the northeast US?
The primary cause of acid rain in the northeast US is emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides from burning fossil fuels, particularly from power plants and vehicles. These pollutants can be carried long distances by winds and contribute to the formation of acidic compounds in the atmosphere, which then fall to the ground as acid rain.
What pollutants did the US start taxing in the 1990?
The US began taxing sulfur dioxide emissions in 1990 as part of the Acid Rain Program to address acid rain. This tax aimed to reduce emissions from power plants through a cap-and-trade system.
Where does acid rain rain the most?
In the US its New York
Who caused acid rain?

What does the term acid rain?
acid rain is when rain contains weak carbonic acid. This rain, as it falls, picks up carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and the air. all rain is slightly acidic because of carbon dioxide but it does no harm to us whatsoever.
Is acid rain an environmental threat in the US?

Why is acid rain from the US a problem in Canada?

it depends if the co2 in the rain is high if not then definitely not
