Here is Oklahoma, we like hurricanes, as we just get a nice heavy rain. It sucks for Texas,. but is great for us.
Tsunamis are a zero percent chance.
We have had a few earthquakes and a 4.8 shook the house with zero damage. Now that the oil well waste water disposal wells are limited too stable areas, earthquakes are mostly a thing of the past.
Tornadoes only hit a very small area. Draw a thin pencil line on a map, and that area may be destroyed, but just 1/4 mile away is full civilization. With the weather radar and storm chasers all three TV stations track the tornadoes from start to finish, block by block. Anyone watching the weather knows to get to a safe spot if they are coming at us. Our cell phones warn us of the possibility of a tornado. Just be weather aware and one has plenty of time to get to a safe area of the house. We have a tornado shelter and room for the dogs and us. The shelter is registered with the city, and the fire department know to come look for us if a semi has landed on the house.
My mom was born and raised in Oklahoma She never saw one, even at a distance, and he parents never saw one, and the lived to be in their late 70s. We had one hit 1.5 miles south and it was just a F2. Not much damage to the area it hit.
So no, I do not worry about natural disasters at all. Zombies don't exist so I don't worry about them either.
