When I moved to Texas, everybody was talking about being afraid of earthquakes. This was at the time of the Conroe flooding in October 1994. They had a 100 year flood twice in the 10 years I was living there, which makes me wonder about how they name these floods. In Tejas, they have hail the size of baseballs, ice storms, one hundred degree farenheit temps with 103% humidity(which I am still skeptical is possible, despite experiencing it)5 kinds of poisonous snakes, alligators, I could go on, trust and believe it.
Did you know that the weather radar turns purple if it rains hard enough? Starts green, then yellow, red and purple when it gets beyond dangerous, which is what I have always taken red to indicate. They get freakin' hurricanes, and tornadoes, and hurricanes accompanied by tornadoes and floods, which is a long weekend, at best.
All this and they are talking about earthquakes, which last like a minute, tops.
