re: What is the scariest natural disaster?

I saw a few wildfires while living in Colorado and the size those fires grow to in almost no time at all and the speed they move over land is pretty frightening. Add in mountainous terrain that limits your escape path and those things can be scary AF.

huge wildfires that create their own weather and sweep across the landscape at breakneck speeds are by far the scariest.

Although, there are very few times I've felt as helpless and hopeless as I did when hunkered down in a hallway as an ef4 wedge over a mile wide was coming my way. When you're praying it doesn't hit you, then it gets quiet except for the roar of the wind...that's scary stuff.
