What great storms and natural disasters have you lived through? * 1
    #26859101 - 08/02/20 03:02 PM (3 years, 6 months ago)

I thankfully don't have much under my belt. Hurricane Isabel, Hurricane Gaston, a few tornadoes, and the eastern earthquake where Californians laughed at us for freaking out about a magnitude 5.8.
















Wbu? Great floods? Wildfires? Blizzards? Sandstorms?

A 5.8 is a big earthquake even in California. California can go years without earthquakes that large. There have been 19 earthquakes in the last decade 5.8 or larger in the continental US, 7 in California.

Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines. 1991. I was a very young child at the time. Still remember parts of it vividly though. My father was assigned to Clark Air Force base. That's why we were there.  It was the second-largest eruption of the 20th century after the 1912 eruption of Novarupta in Alaska. It felt like the end of the world. The ash filled the sky and I swear on my life that it turned the sky midnight dark -- and it was noon.



afterwards the ash blanketed the entire surrounding area





We were evacuated back to the states and I got to ride in an aircraft carrier for like 4 days (the USS Abraham Lincoln).

I also have seen parts of Dallas devastated by tornadoes. 2 in particular -- one of which that slammed the very neighborhood I lived in at the time (fortunately our home was spared), and then one very recently that made national news and tore through neighborhoods within 2 miles from where I currently live.

Luckily we don't have any major natural disasters here unless one of those old volcanoes blow. I've been caught in a bad hail storm though that put me in my place we had to run into someone's random horse shed to take cover

Had a couple crazy weather experiences on family trips as a kid in the mid to late 80s. Our car got hit by lightning once on a trip to Ottawa and the antenna was just gone, vaporized we assume. There was another time we were camping on Beausoleil island in Georgian Bay and a hurricane like storm hit. We went to this storm shelter and when we got back after the storm our tent was crushed by a huge tree branch.

Hurricane Isabel 2003
A family friend who lived on a narrow peninsula in the Chesapeake bay called my mom after the storm had started asking us to come rescue her. Me and my BF drove to Annapolis and got her. Her house ended up being 3’ underwater and she never lived there again. She just died last month. She was one of the first female White House corespondents back in the 60s. Her and Helen Thomas.

The blizzard of 2010  42’ of snow
The Earthquake of 2011 5.8mag

The winner is the Mid-Atlantic derecho of 2012
That was the most violent storm I’ve ever witnessed. 70 - 80 mph winds for a half hour. Massive tree destruction. Power was out for 8 days.





Our power was restored by a crew from Florida. That whole week you saw nothing but power crews from all over. Hydro Quebec to Florida power and light.

Cool, yeah that's a nice area. Love the weathered rock.



My parents always wanted to camp there because this priest they knew liked to go there in this sailboat he had. We took the water taxi over from Honey Harbor. They stopped talking to that guy when they realized he was a virulent antisemite though. He was from Hungary.

Hurricane Carla 1961 category 5
Hurricane Alicia 1983 category 3
Tropical Storm Allison 2001

While not a hurricane, Allison would end up on record as one of the most devastating tropical storms in U.S. history. In mere days, the deadly storm system dumped 80 percent of the Houston area’s average rainfall, damaging 73,000 homes, flooding 95,000 cars and leaving more than 30,000 people stranded in shelters. Allison was responsible for 41 deaths and around $5 billion in property damage.

Hurricane Rita 2005 category 5
Hurricane Ike 2008 category 4
Hurricane Harvey 2017 category 4

Houston gets totally flooded every five years now. Sea level rise and increased rainfall are gonna make Houston unlivable in the next half century
