Ice Storms and Small Multiples

Today at work, I was looking up information on how to make small multiples in Tableau and I came across a blog post that has a nice map visualization of FEMA natural disasters by county.  Before checking out the viz itself, do you have a guess as to what state wins the prize for "severe ice storms" since 1953?  Were you right?

    I guessed the state to the northeast of the real one - not bad, I'd say.

    I used to like making small multiple maps. They would usually surprise people but end up being really nice and informative.

    Good guess.

    I love small multiple maps, and like the author of that post, I'm surprised they aren't more common.
