I'm so glad we don't have to worry about hurricanes and tornadoes here, but the earthquakes! They're not so bad... :)

We have tornadoes AND earthquakes! @_@

Hopefully not both at the same time!

Thankfully, I've never seen a tornado, though where I live could easily equate to the appearance of Kansas, being smack in the middle of 5 acres. I've experienced maybe half a dozen or less earthquakes, one or two which I remember and the rest were slept throughh.

I've no personal experience of tornados or earthquakes, but did experience a Typhoon while in Tokyo in 2007.
 
There are several earthquakes a year in eastern Ontario and western Quebec, where I live.
In the last 30 days, there have been 16 measured quakes in this region, ranging in strength from Mag 2 to Mag 4.1.

Strangely, living here in the UK, I have seen a tornado in the Peak District in Derbyshire.....it wasn't until then that I had any idea that we have tornados here. I was also riding my motorbike through the middle of the 1987 hurricane that swept through southern England.

I was riding along a cliff top along the English Channel coast in 100mph+ winds, what was I thinking!

At a guess, I would say you were thinking "Hmmmm. France looks awfully close today."
 
Years ago, I was riding my bicycle along a country road during a thunderstorm when lightning struck the power pole across the road from me!

I was actually thinking "those trees seem awfully close today and they seem to be travelling faster than I am"!

Good grief that motorbike ride must have been terrifying Gabriel. We had moved to a new build in Hextable 6 weeks beforehand.

The sound of the neighbours garage exploding woke us. I went out to investigate! That was something else - had to hold onto the house to stay put!

I was driving down the seafront once in Morecambe. The wind was howling off the sea. The Post Office van behind me flipped right over on it's side.
