Anybody survive a natural disaster?

Touche'!!!

71 earthquake, Sylmar California. After riding my bed for a minute or more around the room realized it wasn't a thunder storm and jumped into the police tow truck and hit the streets. Had to use the middle of the road to avoid all the store windows that now decorated both sides of the street. Part of the San Fernando Valley evacuated for 3 days until they realized that if the dam broke it would have released over 2 to 3 inches of water to hit the evacuated area. Yes, I said inches.

The worst storm for me was the blizzard of 93 that hit my parents' house in upstate NY. I was home visiting during spring break from college, along with 7 other friends. We had just spent the week skiing in NH and were heading back to NC for college. We stopped over at my parents house when the storm hit. 3 feet in about 24 hours. We didn't lose power, just our minds. My parents don't have a big house, and we had 8 college students, Mom, Dad, my brother's pregnant wife, and two children my parents were watching for the weekend (their parents were stuck in Charlotte). Good memories, though.

Mr. Aurelius standing in the snow looking up. "Are you kidding me? Have you taken a good look inside that house? Come on God, cut me some slack."

Funny thing, though, my mom loves having company for dinner. My parents host people from church quite often, so they had plenty of food for all of us. That being said, I was never happier to see my dorm room when I returned to school. And Mr. Aurelius was probably never happier to see us go!

I saw several blizzards and earthquakes and forestfires listed but didn't notice any ice storms listed so I'll Have to pitch the couple I've endured out there . Arkansas don't get much in the way of blizzards but we do get some fairly rough ice storms . I've only had a couple that cut the power for nearly a week . Driving was hazardous during that time so it was a time to stay close to home and be thankful for wood heat .

whitewater- did you get much of the 2007 ice storm down there? I still have damaged trees.

Tornado in Orlando Fl. Jumped over our house. Pitch black except for the lightening, 8 am, tornado warning had been lifted. Roof A-Frames driven into our yard about 1 1/2 feet deep from apartment building about 2 blocks away. Neutral wiring to home was down. Metal extender from electr. pole bent over 90 degrees. House down the street was sucked out entirely, only block walls remained. Went out into street with neighbors and cleared street so vehicles could get thru. Then stupidity over took me. I cranked up the grill in the carport to relax and make some coffee. All the neighbors showed up again to see where the fire was. Makes u think ! g.

Sounds like you got good neighbors.

Tornado in 1979, an F-4 ripped the town apart. It was amazing how many people were looting everything afterward. And numerous blizzards

live in sf bay area during loma preata also lived in bay area during the oakland fire

64 Alaskan Earthquake. You can't imagine a 9.2 that lasts over 5 minutes watching the land move in waves.

1971 San Fernando earthquake (I was four)
1982 Christmas blizzard (Colorado)
1988 Yellowstone wildfires (kinda cheating on this one, as I was working on a wildland fire crew at the time)
2000 Y2K global disaster (oh yeah, that didn't actually happen)
2001 9/11/01 Washington, DC (ok, I saw smoke from the Pentagon from my hotel room, but seeing Russia from your living room qualifies for foreign policy experience in politics, so that's my story and I'm sticking to it)
2003 March blizzard (Colorado)
2006 Christmas Blizzard (Colorado) (I did get trapped in my house with my ex-wife (yes, she was my ex at the time and she was dropping off a pet for petsitting), which had the potential to be a disaster, but turned out to be, well, highly entertaining).

Man, I've lived a pretty easy life. That's the nice thing about living in Colorado. When our natural disasters come (wildland fires or blizzards) you either run like hell and lose everything you own or sit at home and wait for it to melt. Damn, I guess after all these years I have to disagree with Def Leppard. It is NOT better to burn out than fade away.

You were 4 in 1971?! I have hongs older than that. In fact, I have one of them on right now.

When I was about 3 1/2 had a flood in St Paul Minn where the car got half submerged and my dad had to carry on his shoulders to safety so we could use a phone to call for family to come get us.
