I thunderstorms. And tornado warnings. And hurricanes. I stared right at a tornado barreling towards my home one time, and it lifted maybe two blocks from us -- had nightmares about them for years, but I still love the excitement of a tornado warning. And I've been through a hurricane, Opal in 1995.

I've also been through an earthquake (Loma Prieta in 1989, the San Francisco one). I could do without another one of those. And I'm not crazy about blizzards, having grown up in Ohio. You'll notice I now live in Alabama....

Thought I better edit to say -- I don't love the destruction and the human cost of these events. It's the nature of extreme weather I love.
