Sanguine Tenacious Tidings

Be Prepared for Anything

Day 3717: April 25, 2023

Prompt: Which kind of natural disaster would you find the most terrifying to experience?



Any kind. I don't even like it when the electricity is off for a few hours. We are rural and still have above ground electric lines. When we get high winds, a tree can go down on a line so electricity can be interrupted while lineman fix the line.

We have had small earthquakes. None large enough to interrupt life.

Over the course of many years, some storms have actually evolved into a tornado and hit small communities or taken out a farmer's barn. Fortunately, not a lot of human death involved mostly damage to buildings.

Mostly we sometimes get electric storms: high winds, lightning, heavy rain or snow, and thunder.

No natural disaster is a good one to contemplate. When one is on the news, I always think about the needs of the people who are experiencing the disruption of their lives. I'm sure it is the kind of tragedy that will be on a victim's mind forever. It makes me feel useless.
