[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hurricane. Not even a question. You know for absolute certainty that for at least 6 months a year it’s not even a concern.

The other 6 months, it’s still just a remote possibility. And you’ll have plenty of warning.

Contrast that to earthquakes.  No warning whatsoever, meaning you have to be prepared literally ALL THE TIME, and wildfires, which, even with warning, can move so fast they literally incinerate vehicles trying to drive away from them as they’re happening.

No thanks. I’ll take the hurricane. [/quote]

I prefer earthquakes, than hurricanes, then wildfires last.  Hurricanes but I had to evacuate be a plane or boat would probably be after wildfires. In theory I wouldn’t want to live in a tsunami zone but I actually did for eight years and it was fine... But one unlucky day, it may not be

Been always prepared for an earthquake is really trivial. You make an emergency kit and check it over every couple years. You’ll probably never use it.[/quote]
