I like storms. I can do without the death and destruction, but the actual storm itself is pretty cool. Natures fireworks.

I put "Other" -

If I had to live through a natural disaster, there are two I would less prefer to have to endure:

1) Supervolcano eruption

2) Very large asteroid/ comet striking Earth

The reason?

Tornados, earthquakes, hurricanes, etc. are globally local events.

These two would affect the entire globe.

Tornados strike fast and furious. They seem to come out of nowhere and they bounce around alot. Unpredictable. :)

Storms for me too. I love to hear the thunder. Watch the lightning, when it lights up the sky. Once when others were running for dryness. I bought some Ice Cream and stood under an awning. And I just enjoyed the fireworks.

I'm with neb about the volcano and an impact on earth. Scarey indeed. But I live in MI. So I have never thought about a big wave or earthquake...but Tornados have scared me all my life...I even have nightmares about them :) When we built our house my hubby went as far as making a nice shelter in our basement that was reinforced under the stairwell for Tornados, we could sleep there if we want to...so when we have bad storms now instead of me staying awake all night watching the alerts we all can stay in the basement. He's so good to me :o

Love and Blessings,

Angel

Other.

Mass genocide caused by ignorance and sheer stupidity is what I fear most. Weather patterns change, storms die down, flood waters recede, and earthquakes eventually stop. But the ignorance of man takes generations to change.
