Title: What Natural Event Scares you the most
Post by: smithjcsdfw on April 12, 2011, 08:52:03 am: What Natural Event Scares you the most? I know my grandaughter right now is scared of lightning or maybe it is just another reason to snuggle with mommy. But I tend to have a healthy respect for those tornados that mother nature dishes out to us here in Texas. We had four F1's yesterday and am sure we will have more before the season is over.

Post by: devideddi on April 12, 2011, 02:22:09 pm: Tornadoes! When I was younger none of that stuff really bothered me at all. I would just go about my business as usual. Now its different! I have children to protect and I now realize the potential of real danger. When tornados come near, you will find me and my kids and dog under the mattress in the hallway with the laptop getting and giving twitter updates! lol
oh, and praying!

Post by: tjshorty on April 12, 2011, 02:57:37 pm: I have only experienced tornadoes and thunderstorms. Between those two, tornadoes. I love thunderstorms, would someday like to chase a tornado.

Post by: JuletLindo on April 12, 2011, 07:59:52 pm: I've never been through a natural disaster (knock on wood), but I can imagine that I wouldn't want to experience an earthquake. Just seeing it on the news brings about a 'trap' feeling.

I live in Orlando, Florida. The most I've been through was a bad storm. Some have experienced tornadoes, but I haven't. (I guess Orlando is one of the luckier locations in Florida.) To be stuck in anything that has the possibility of taking lives is scary.

Post by: derrick12480 on April 12, 2011, 08:37:17 pm: My biggest fear(natural disaster or not) is tornados. I'd rather sit through an earthquake and forrest fire with a threat of tsunami then to go through a tornado. I freak out when storms get bad.

Post by: thetotalfool on April 13, 2011, 06:47:07 am: Tornadoes, definitely! I don't live anywhere near the coast or a moderately active fault line.
Title: Re: What Natural Event Scares you the most
Post by: kay7 on April 13, 2011, 07:28:36 am: I think all natural disasters are scary but since I live in tornado alley, I guess I'd pick those. Apparently, we are close enough to a major fault line that the chances of a BIG earthquake are high and that concerns me too but never having been in one, I'm not as conditioned to fear them.

Post by: milwaukeej on April 13, 2011, 08:58:21 am: Tornados, since they're the only one we experience in Milwaukee. However, we have a basement built like a bomb shelter, so as long as we get down there in time, I'm okay!

The idea of serious earthquakes are pretty scary to me - you can't escape them!

Post by: mmangas on April 13, 2011, 09:12:11 am: I would have to say an earthquake or tsunami would be the scariest.

Post by: genfo12 on April 13, 2011, 10:50:17 am: For me I'd say tsunamis since I live near the ocean, but I guess I should say earthquakes cuz that's what causes them.

Post by: bubba9052 on April 13, 2011, 12:30:22 pm: tornados are by far the scariest im always afraid that im going to die and i hate having to sit in the closet because i dont have a basement to go to ive never experienced an earthquake but i dont want to
Title: Re: What Natural Event Scares you the most
Post by: evilpixiemagic on April 13, 2011, 12:51:51 pm: tornados, for sure! no doubt! mainly because i live in the shenandoah valley and one could really reek havoc here, if a big one got stirred up, most of ours small
