What is your least favorite natural disaster?
Tornados! And wouldn't
you know it, one's on the way right now. There's a tornado watch tonight
for all of Ohio, USA. It's in Central Ohio right now and it's coming eastbound,
which is where I live! I'm scared.

Though I'm nowhere
near a fault, Earthquakes.

I don't have first
hand knowledge of any natural disaster, but I would think a volcanic eruption
with flowing lava would be pretty bad.

Probably a hurricane.
I think they do the most damage. Those fires in the west were awful, too,
though they were started by humans. I think I'd rather be in a hurricane
than a fire. I can't imagine a worse fate than burning to death.

any of them.

Willful stupidity.

earthquake.

Isn't a "disaster"
a bad thing? How could I have a favorite "disaster"? They are
all bad things...
tornados, hurricanes, monsoon, mudslide, etc... they are all bad. I don't
have a favorite.

Probably hurricanes.
I seem to hear more stories about human stupidity in connection with hurricanes
than any other natural disaster. I get very annoyed with people who have
hurricane parties instead of leaving the endangered area. I also get annoyed
when my tax money goes in federal disaster relief to help idiots rebuild
their homes along the same coastlines that get hit with hurricanes like
clockwork.

I'd have to say
a tornado since I am here in Tx. I've only been involved in one but wasn't
"near it". It hot Downtown Fort Worth a few years back. I was
stuck in a Kohl's department store and the managers wouldn't let anyone
leave since they had reports of a tornado. 10 minutes later it had
swept through Downtown and surrounding areas and that's all you saw on
tv for the next week. I live 5 miles from downtown.

Probably the ones
I'me used to seeing first hand, the ones that have a direct effect. Around
here that would be blizzards.

Earthquakes, hands
down...if I was ever in one, that would totally freak me out...actually,
it turned out, Alaska had a big Earthquake...and aftershocks recently...and
I was just there a couple of months ago...plus I was there in March...

The only one I've
ever been through was an earthquake, and that was pretty terrible. But
I'd probably say fires are what I'm scared of the most.

Hahahaha, what
a funny question. Any natural disaster that leaves me pinned in a small
space with no way out is my least favorite.

I'm not particularly
fond of any of them, but flooding frightens me the most.

Tornados scare
me to death!!!

This is an odd
question.... well, I haven't experienced all of them. However, I can say
that I have a great fear of tornados and I'm glad I no longer live in
the south where they were common. Fortunately, I didn't see one up close
and personal.

My least favorite
natural disaster would be anything that I have to be outside in.

My favorite natural
disaster is volcanic explosion because it is so cool and most of the time
people can outrun it. (sorry Pompeii)

Tornadoes. So unpredictable.
Kill your neighbors, but leave your house completely untouched save a
few missing shingles. How does it do that? Ick.
