    Tornado. I consider that really the only one that you can't prepare for whatsoever.

    I'm terrified of tornadoes for the same reason. Even though you can't really prepare for an earthquake but for some reason that doesn't scare me as much.

    We only have tornados here, so I picked that. I don't like wildfires, but I feel like with that at least I'd have a little bit of a warning and could get away. Tornados just come down out of no where.

    I love storms too much to choose tornado.  Hurricane would be mine, but I have a fear of drowning.

    We deal with floods and tornado's here often.  So they don't bother me much, that's just a normal Spring for me.

    Tornadoes scare the bejeesus out of me and I'm so glad I don't live in a high tornado area. BUT you totally forgot TSUNAMIS which are the scariest thing ever imaginable to me. I have nightmares about them.

    You're right!! I used to live on Long Island and also in Rhode Island, both times I was about 2 miles from the water I would have been a goner if a tsunami hit.

    I'm a strange one...none of those scare me. I think they're kind of cool (and, yes, I've been around most of them). Now, a tsunami would scare the crap out of me.

    Wildfires seem more likely here, but they are all pretty darn frightening!

    Tornados used to not scare me as much, but then we had that outbreak of tornados a year ago this week and I saw the complete devastation in my ILs neighborhood and my thoughts all changed. That was a wake-up call. Now, I'm gunning for a storm shelter to be put in as soon as humanly possible.

    Tornadoes are scary shit, but I think I'm more afraid of earthquakes. You really don't get much of any warning for either one, though.

    Earthquakes scare the crap out of me. I experienced a fairly significant one as a teen and I really thought that was the end of me.
