States With The Most Natural Disasters.
Do you know how sometimes huge things happen in nature that have the potential to really screw up your week? Well, these are called natural disasters.
They happen suddenly and can wreck things like buildings, land, and even people's lives. In the United States, we face various types of natural disasters. Some usual ones are floods, hurricanes, earthquakes, tornadoes, wildfires, blizzards, tsunamis, and Gary Bussey interviews. extreme weather 2023
This is a subject I am asked about all the time. If this or any subject you are concerned about, there is an excellent website with this type of info. It is called “Where might I live”. There is a “wish list” function. You can gauge what is important to you, and it will show you some options by county. I will leave a link down below.

Former Michigan resident here. i loved the UP, spent a lot of time there and originally planned to retire up on Superior. Sadly damage from a car accident and numerous surgeries left me unable to do so and I now live in southwest Florida. Yeah hurricanes are a pain, Ian was a direct hit last year but my area, even though near the Gulf is not subject to storm surge which causes the worst damage. A lot of them go around but don't hit us. You'd think we would more often that we do as we stick out in the Atlantic and the Gulf but nope, not so far. We have to keep an eye on each one but at least we get plenty of warning before those that do hit come in. I went across the state, down and came up behind Ian being back home the next morning. Damage not as bad as I feared. Tornadoes, we get generally EF 0 and 1s mostly with a very rare EF 2. Some of my more recent neighbors decided Ian was one hurricane too much for them and moved back north, others thought the summers were too brutal.

Natural disasters is one of the reasons I continue to live in Pennsylvania. Most of the state isn’t far enough north to get crippling snowstorms. We don’t have a coastline, so we don’t get impacted severely by hurricanes. Tornadoes aren’t really an issue and we don’t often have wildfires.

Because a lot of Florida's bedrock (if you can call it that) is limestone, which is incredibly porous. That's why caves tend to form in limestone-heavy areas (including Kentucky, which saw a sinkhole swallow part of the National Corvette Museum), and also explains all those lakes around Orlando. They weren't formed by glaciers, obviously.

I live in Texas but in 1998 I was living in Orlando Florida and I used to work at the airport. So in February of that year a few tornadoes hit the area at night. My daughter was only a year old and my mother was living with me. We were all sleeping but we heard a loud noise that woke us up, we tried to look outside but it was pitch black, windy and it was raining. We were so scared cause we couldn’t see anything but we were feeling the apartment shaking. My mom started praying lol. A few minutes later everything was kinda quiet. The next day, the road I used to take to go to work was closed. At that point I didn’t know yet what happened but the road looked different, and after realizing what happened I noticed that a gas station and a trailer park that were on that road, were completely gone. I just started crying cause that’s when it hit me, knowing that a tornado did that and passed so close to us. I’m so glad we didn’t see it. Cause what we felt was disturbing enough.

Right now, the big ice storm destroyed 30% of Austin's tree cover, then we get this drought and some folks still haven't cleared out all their fallen brush so when a wildfire starts, it has plenty to burn. Thankfully we have teams with plenty of practice so this year fires are being quashed quick. It was freaky picking up and delivering meals to the latest area near my horse pasture. So glad so few homes perished, but with our tight home situation, it will be tough on those folks to find homes soon.

Up here in New England we mainly avoid some of those natural disaster or there just weaker when they arrive. Earthquake and wildfires are quite rare, dust storms and mudslides are barely a thing here. Tornadoes aren't that common, the ocean waters aren't warm enough for a cat 3, 2 or 1 to hit us often as it does in the southeast but that can change with climate change warming the oceans at higher elevations. We'll get the occasional major flooding every now and then. Snowstorms/nor'easters are the main #1 disasters we worry about @@noreaster08

@@CeruleanSky1111 Although probably beyond the scope of this video apparently heat related deaths are the greatest in regards to climate disasters in the US. In 2021 the number was 1,600. Nobody talks about it as it’s not as dramatic as other disasters. So New England would be a better hedge against heat related deaths.
