    OK here comes one of my famous rants....

    Try liking that blizzard more when your living in 4 feet of snow and the power goes out for 3 days and it drops to -18 degrees F windchill and you have no power for heat. Then remember that you can't leave the house for safety with mom and dad because even if the roads were not closed you couldn't get your car out of the garage and into the driveway.

    Or better yet in all of that nastiness, climb up to your roof to shovel it off and de-ice it because it is starting to leak and you can hear trusses starting to crack from the massive weight of the snow and ice.

    The tell me again you prefer blizzard.... Your showing us your age... wanting to miss school.... :grin: :nono:
    I was born in a snow storm like that and this sounds like a not preparing issue more thne its te blizzards fault :grin: I was on a bus going to school one day along time ago and instead of going up the hill I was sliding back down it was fun!!1

    Oh my goodness, no bite to them? It doesn't count as an earthquake unless it is over 6 on the scale, and those definately have a bite to them (having been through a couple of 6.5+). Lots of damage, fatalities likely. I stay with my initial choice: blizzard. (Okay, I know, it doesn't count as a blizzard unless it's 20 below zero and you get five feet of snow - I'll still take blizzard.)

    Had earthquakes, tornadoes, mini-blizzards, and weak hurricane's. I vote earthquakes.

    They happen the least, and typically don't have any bite to them. I'll take my chances with them...

    I'll take hurricanes. You have plenty of time to prep for them. If you get caught here without supplies. Shame on you.

    An earthquake, I dont like being cold.

    Now if the choice were between an earthquake or a tornado, both of which can just happen, the earthquake wins again. At least after the earthquake you know where all your stuff is

    You forgot Tornadoes, which spawn with little or no notice.

    Had a few brushes with them already this year.

    For those of you who would rather have 24 inches of snow.... in 8 hours......

    Here's a thought from February of this year........








    Better have a neighbor with a larger snowblower or you better not have a heart condition....
