My grandfather used to burn the undergrowth in the woods on his property every 2 or 3 years. When conditions were right, he and my father and uncles would carefully burn off the dead leaves and small shrubs and dead grass. The people that lived in the piney woods of north Louisiana would clear the area around their houses and out buildings and cut down the trees for about 100 feet from the house. This created a fire break that, in the event of forest fire, would help keep the house from burning down.

I lived in Fort Lauderdale, Florida between August 2000 and April 2003 and my roommate and myself were at a Sunday Night Football game between my Baltimore Ravens and the Miami Dolphins (there were honoring Dan Marino at halftime) and it poured almost through the entire game. Being from Baltimore, Maryland, I joked with my roommate, who was born and raised in Boron, California and had never witnessed a powerful storm as such that to be prepared to be witness to a possible hurricane. After I came back to Baltimore, he purchased a home in North Lauderdale in 2003 and was still living there when Hurricane Wilma hit the southern peninsula. I remember being on the phone with him as he was preparing to go out to retrieve parts of the boarding that came off when it first hit because it was "calm" at that time. I told him DO NOT go outside as the "calm" was the eye of the hurricane going through and if was out there when the other half of the storm hit, he could be injured/killed. He didn't listen and as he told me the next day, the minute he went outside of his house, it instantly got dark and the winds picked up tremendously and he missed getting whacked in the head from a piece of wood that the storm had picked up and hurled towards him, smashing into his Ford Ranger F150 truck and destroying it. Listen to someone that was born and raised on the east coast tells someone born and raised on the west coast about hurricanes!!!

On April 3 , 1974 I was living in Louisville , Kentucky when we were hit by a tornado . The storm first started at the Kentucky State Fairgrounds and flattened all or nearly all of the 16 outdoor horse stalls that happened to be empty at the time . I was on I-65 going north and was listening to the radio as I had never seen a tornado before and I wanted to see one ! CRAZY !!! I listened to the radio to track its course and it went into the East end area of Lyndon , where it did the most damage. I was scared and shocked by the power of this tornado . I went with my folks days later to the area hard hit and there were several houses that were flattened with a few in between that were hardly touched. I have not seen a tornado that close up since that day .

The stores were closed as well as the schools. We we’re lucky we had gas heat. We had stoves in the kitchen and in our done-over basement. We used the gas stove to cook and keep warm. You could use the heat, but not the thermostat, so we just had to turn the heat on, all the way, then shot it off when it got too hot. We let our neighbors who we’re friends back then. We didn’t have tv. But we didn’t freeze or starve.

My family was moving the weekend that Hurricane Hugo hit. Charlotte NC. Sept 1989. My youngest was just a little over a year old. Around midnight we were taking a truck load of stuff to the new house. The wind got so bad. A stoplight came down on the truck. The State Patrol officers were out guiding traffic. I felt bad for them. They were having a hard time standing up. We saw a dog being carried away by the wind. It was ok. We saw it come back down the road. My husband tried to get it. It wound not come to him. Cars were flipped upside down on top of buildings. We were without power for five days. Grocery stores were giving food away before it went bad. National Guard came out. Gas stations ran out of gas. People stealing from stores. Trees down everywhere. It was horrible. Very scary for my family.

Another major storm in Seattle I'd like to mention is the 2006 Hanukkah Eve storm. This storm was a Massively Powerful Pacific Northwest Windstorm and it brought sustained winds of 74mph to Washington State's SR104/Hood Canal Floating Bridge. It was so powerful nearly 1.2 million customers lost power during the storm. I remember watching my old growth Cherry Tree in my front yard bending in half under the strength of the winds. This storm was so bad and had no good ETA that I remember my schools afternoon announcement from that day. "Attention all students and faculty, All after school and evening activities are canceled and the school campus will be closing at 2:30PM. All students are required to head home immediately as there is a massive storm approaching and if you are still on campus after 2:30PM you will be in trouble. Please take this alert seriously and stay safe." The closed school for the Winter Holidays 3 school days earlier because of this storm. Seeing the damage and know that if the storm had hit out of the S/SE my house could have been destroyed was not a fun thing to find out the next morning. Seeing all the downed trees and power lines you'd think a hurricane had struck Seattle

My husband was stranded at Marta, then later on GA 400 for over 12hrs just trying to get somewhere safe. Cars abandoned. People taking shelter in stores and restaurants. I didn't see my husband for three days. I had two small children at the time and we barely made it home from the store that first night just trying to get across town. People were getting out of their cars and working to push other cars up short hills. We had no warning when it happened. Atlanta looked like a scene from a dystopian movie.

The wind and rain lasted for about 18 to 24 hours. We saw winds of over 130 mph (200 kph) and were without running water for 2 1/2 months and no electricity for 4 months following the storm. It was like living in a post apocalyptic world.

Alot of them. In 2018. We are still doing alot of rebuilding and replacing. I do not live there anymore but up the hill. Also another crazy experience was the floods of 2008 in Cedar Rapids Iowa as well. Both natural disasters caused $$$$ in damages. However, because our city is very trained and teaches our communities, we've only had a few deaths. Both were in the summer and knocked out electric on a scale I've never experienced as an Iowan. But we are Iowa strong which means everyone helps everyone in any way possible. Be it comfort, cleaning, volunteering, giving of what you have/sharing. Our city of Cedar Rapids has learned. We are more prepared for crazy events but no one really knows when weather is going to happen. Love this channel so much ❤❤❤ even the gross stuff. Lol , love from Heather in Iowa!

Not quite a natural disaster but that same lake I mentioned in another comment here did the most interesting thing. The water became huge waves and washed up over the docks where there was lamp posts. Since it was winter time and we'll below freezing our lake always took till near spring to completely freeze due to the depth. When the water came up over the posts it froze into the most amazing ice formations and it looked even cooler at night or evenings when the lights came on underneath the ice. It only ever happened once and that was over 15 years ago now but hopefully if it ever happens again we will have better cameras to get better post cards.

His second video was just him alone crying so I'm guessing he lost his second child. It hurts to remember this. And these videos are probably still online somewhere

Usually they were just little guys that took out some trees or random farm buildings nothing to serious not like what's on the news

Sad fact about famous Naturalist David Attenborough; He lost three family members in the 2004 Boxing Day Tsunami: His Niece Jane and her daughter as well as and her mother in law. Two other family members survived the Tsunami. I had a friend who lives when 2024 Japan Earthquake struck. She was visiting her family. I was talking to her and her mom when it hit. They're okay as they weren't in the epicenter but could still feel some ground shaking. I live in Texas where we deal with chances of 🌪 and strong storms that can produce damaging hail. A few folks at work never lived in Texas. At the start of 🌪 Season my managers mention it and they asked if we knew what to do. I said I did so they asked me to explain the difference between a ⌚️ and ⚠️. I basically said: "A ⌚️ means to be cautious and pay attention to the news and for the siren. Be prepared to take shelter. A ⚠️? Means get your butt to safety now!" I also even told everyone the safest spots in the store. RIP to those who died in these disasters.

I think Mike Bettis from The Weather Channel described Clem's footage the best....he said Clem was 'filming death.'

I’m from Syracuse. I don’t miss those winters. In the Army, we were sent to Watertown (Ft. Drum) for attic survival instead of Alaska. What’s that tell you? Lol

crazy things happen when people get so engrossed in watching an event on a screen that they forget it's also happening to them in real life.

I live in the UK so the biggest natural disasters have been flooding in flood prone areas and 122mph gusts last year due to the Tonga volcanic eruption.

My daughter and I got caught on the Blue Ridge Parkway in Virginia. The hail was not as big as I think they said China but big enough and hard to make me think my windshield would give away not fun

I'm surprised Mt. Vesuvius wasn't on the list. It wiped 2 cities out.
