BeenaBobba Posted May 2, 2004 Share Posted May 2, 2004 I'd have to say that tsunamis freak me out the most. There's just something incredibly freaky thinking about a huge wall of water, isn't there? In a very close second place would be tornados. I used to freak out when I was little when there'd be tornado watches. I live in Rhode Island, so when we get tornados, they're usually really, really small. I think the biggest was, like, an F2. LOL.

VeraMaria Posted May 2, 2004 Share Posted May 2, 2004 I've been in many earthquakes (when i lived in mexico, including a 6.8 one), as well as mudslides (half my house went down in one, also in mexico lol) and here in miami....yeah, hurricanes.... oh, and in mexico we lived close to the Popocatepetl and the Ixtacihual (two volcanoes) and once the Popo nearly erupted, but all we got was ton of ashes, it was BLACK outside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Im4Him Posted May 2, 2004 Share Posted May 2, 2004 The only one of those I have to worry about where I live are tornadoes, ao that's what I put. We also had one hit about a block from my house once, which was scary. I've been in two earthquakes, too, when I was in Japan, but they were both small and I was in bed, half-asleep both times. There were also hurricanes (typhoons) there too, but they weren't so bad, because I wasn't on the coast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeenaBobba Posted May 2, 2004 Author Share Posted May 2, 2004 [quote name='Im4Him' date='May 2 2004, 01:30 PM'] I've been in two earthquakes, too, when I was in Japan, but they were both small and I was in bed, half-asleep both times. [/quote] Haha. It's like that with me too. There's been a couple of small earthquakes here in Rhode Island, and I've slept through most of them. LOL. We did have one, though, in late summer, I think. I wasn't sure what it was. My brother and I were sitting in the living room, and I heard a big banging noise. That was it. I didn't even know it was an earthquake until my mom asked me if I felt the earthquake the next day. LOL. She actually felt the ripples in her house.

rachael Posted May 2, 2004 Share Posted May 2, 2004 I have been in two earthquakes. One when I was in Alaska- it was like a 5 or 6, but we were in the middle of nowhere, so there was no damage. The other was a few months ago here in the great state of Georgia. I've been in a couple of hurricanes and come very close to being in a tornado. Gotta love Georgia weather!

BeenaBobba Posted May 2, 2004 Author Share Posted May 2, 2004 We've had a couple of hurricanes here in Rhode Island. They're usually not too bad, though. By the time they hit Rhode Island, they've usually weakened significantly. God bless, Jennifer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
