...on it’s way. What if any natural disasters have you survived?

I’ve been in a few earthquakes but nothing that caused any destruction.

well im here in cali and had never expericene any natural disasters yet.  So how many hurricane have hit florida this whole year?

I believe this is the second hurricane for Florida this year. The first was Charlie. There have been some close ones that just made it to a tropical storm.

i feel so bad for florida…they are getting torn a new one.

my natural disasters: tornados and earthquakes. been lucky in both.

nothing up here where i live has ever happened.

Tornados and hurricanes seem scary. Earthquakes don’t seem nearly as bad.

Anyone actually seen a tornado or hurricane in person?

Looks like antman has. I never have. Someone share their experience.

<~~~~~~~~ Has been in a tornado. And just barely missed a hurricane. =) I’ve also been in a freakin’ heatwave/drought, and TRUST ME, Texan droughts/heatwaves are just as bad as any disaster 😛

yeah i think i would like die of shock if i ever were neat a torado or saw one comming.

it got downgraded to a category 2 which is good news.

Yeah, I heard that too. They are hoping it doesn’t pick back up.

thats good to hear, what was the highest it was at?

It was at a Category 4 last night. 131 - 155 mph (I looked it up)

wow that would be a bitch if it got to civilization… it would suck to be hit with that.

well andrew was a cat4 when it hit, and it was the second deadliest/expensive disaster in us history, only behind 9/11

wow.. man can someoen be smart and tell me how hurricanes form?

You see, you take a mommy cloud and a daddy cloud and…

Oh wait, wrong story. =\

Oh, I just realized I passed my 700 posts mark. I should probably celebrate or something like everyone else did, huh?

Nah, too tired 😛 Partying is for those youngins. :::raises and shakes fist in anger:::

I’ve been through a couple tornadoes which is not a fun experience. Sitting in your basement, sometimes sleeping in it, with your family can drive you insane.

I remember when I was a kid we were at the lake and it started raining so we left. About 30 minutes after we left tornadoes were reported in the area. I looked up at the sky from the back of the car and there was a purple, green, and black hole in the sky that looked like hell was descending. Little scary.

wow. I’ll stick to ca and the earthquakes.

what am i doing here :think:

nothing too bad in my state, just snow blizzards, and tornadoes rarely

Chicago- Blizzards and a few tornados, nothing too close to my area though.

And Frances is a bad name for a hurricane, I mean a hurricane named Frances couldn’t possibly do much damage, it’s too close to “france” and we all know how wussy the French are. This hurricane will probably surrender to Florida or something.

Couple of good sized hurricanes.
Somewhat fun to walk around outside during.
