What natural disaster is most likely to occur where you live?

For me, it's probably a tornado. 🌪️

Earthquake or wildfire.

'Sunny' Bournemouth - slightly inclement weather possibly? It's really pretty safe here.

I live on the coast. Hurricanes. Any type of storm-surge can cause bad flooding as well.

No water. I expect this place to look Mad Maxish in 20 years.

I fear ice storms more than anything because you can lose power for days like back in 2013,.

"The Ice Storm". Now that was a dark movie.

A flood.

[–] GlenEllyn (21121) 4 years ago

This would have been my guess for you.

Actually, floods can happen just about anywhere. Get enough rain in a very short period of time and there you go.

[–] Stratego (29299) 4 years ago

Ah yes, but floods that can wipe away half of the country? That's a real danger here.

[–] GlenEllyn (21121) 4 years ago

Yep, I get that. It's so flat there, right? Everyone would be affected.

[–] Stratego (29299) 4 years ago

Yes, the western part of the country is very flat. The lowest point, 23 ft. below sea level, is right outside of the city.
