Likely natural disaster
What natural disaster is most likely to occur where you live?
For me, it's probably a tornado. 🌪️
Extreme heat and a power outage = death.
shareThis thread reminds of the Twilight Zone episode where Earth is supposed to be heading into the Sun, but than at the end you realize, Oh Earth is actually moving away from the Sun. I always wondered as a kid which would be a worse death.
shareCold is a much bigger killer than heat
That episode was on yesterday! Not really a favorite as it is just a young woman hallucinating that it is too hot when the opposite is true
After living here, "hot!" I gave it more thought. With cold don't you just kind of go to sleep. With heat I think your suffering would be much worse. So if Earth has to leave its orbit, I hope it goes away from the sun.
shareYes, just because cold kills more people doesn't mean it's a "worse" death than death by heat. I have no idea..BTW the actress in the above episode (who imagines it's too hot due to being sick with fever) is now 80 years old!
shareLois Nettleton? I just saw that ep for the first time a couple weeks ago.
I didn't think the story itself was all that interesting, but it was a nice short bit of theater, convincing and easy to relate to.
A lot of TZ I find hard to watch but that episode was a good one.
