Sorry Ive been slackin, busy weekend.

This will be for tomorrow, but whatever, Im early.

Whats the worst weather, natural disaster, whatever youve been caught in?

The worst I was caught in was a bad storm probably about 7 years ago in La Crosse... I think a tornado touched down about 10 miles from my house. Otherwise I was in Wisconsin Dells about 6 or 7 years ago I think staying in a hotel when we had a flash flood... The whole first floor of the hotel was flooding.

The worst storm I was caught in was last year while I was visiting my parents. We just had a whole lot of rain dump down and within minutes the street was flooding. The drains just couldn't handle the amount of water coming down. I had to quickly run out and get my car off the road and onto higher ground because it was already touching the bottom of the car. A few more minutes went by and then it was up to my knees. I could have actually gone swimming out on the road. It flooded roads all around the city. I was actually happy I wasn't at home at the apartment because the parking lot flooded so bad three cars were almost submerged and mine would have been parked with those as well. All three cars were wrote off because the water got into the engines as well as toasted the computers. The cars were 2 Honda Civics and a really old Toyota Corolla. What I can't believe was I heard they started their cars while they were under the water so they just pulled all the water into their engines as well. I guess they were just trying to get them out even though it was too late by then.

I was outside during Katrina, if you think New Orleans got damage, they got nothing (they got the easy side of the storm)

Small tornado went over my parents house when I was in grade 10 or 11. It looked alot worse than it was. Only damage was it knocked over our 50 foot TV antenna.

Nothing cool happens in Washington. Lets see ... Maybe a mid-size earthquake. Oh, and Mount Saint Helens ... But I wasn't alive for that.

A couple of tornado very close. And once during a bad thunderstorm, the car in front of us was struck by lightning.

ditto. i never ran so fast before. 7 year olds who live on the fault line during a 6+ quake get scared.
