i live in california the land of earthquakes but i would be terrified if i lived in tornado alley. ive lived in california for my whole life, 38 years of it and have been through several pretty big jolts but nothing as devastating as some of the tornado pictures ive seen on the news. hurricanes would be a cake walk because you know theyre coming.
whats the scariest natural disaster?

Earthquakes are very unpleasant.
Tornados [Hurricanes at Sea] can be scary and more than devastating.
But I think living near a volcano that decides to erupt would be the worst. No getting away, and a horrible death is ensured.

Our sun becoming a red giant. But that's probably not happening anytime soon so I'll go with giant meteor.
Julian, logged in, at a keyboard, with time on his hands, waiting delivery of his monthly medication refills. Scariest by far. Ask me how I know.

A tornado during a hurricane, hurricanes produce lots of tornado's.
A surname would be very scary, especially in flatlands like Florida.

I'd say fire is the scariest and most dangerous natural disaster.

... or a really big wave -- and that's coming from a water rat.
A big, tasty wave?

Nothing is scarier than a violent tornadic supercell. Can you image this forming due west of your house? I'd be deucing bricks...

At 6:35, you'll see a large truck thrown through the air past the grain elevator - more than 100 feet high. We're talkin 5 seconds of hang time on a 2 ton vehicle (NWS Canada confirmed). Nothing in nature concentrates her power more than that.

My family, a few hours after chili night.
I'll give a more existential answer and say that the scariest natural disaster is the one I am forced to experience.
I lived for 40 years in a city built on over 50 volcanoes....I remember as a kid lying in bed at night hearing the trains rumbling and thinking it was our local volcano going up.
Now I live on flat land next to our countries biggest river - a major weather bomb hits tomorrow,flooding predicted,but not in my Town.
