It runs north-south from the North Pole to the South Pole and passes through several U.S. states, including parts of Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, and South Dakota. The 98th meridian is often referenced in discussions about geography and land use, particularly in relation to the historical division between different climate zones in North America.
