Any ideas about a looming 3rd century disaster? A comet is the only thing I can think that could be a warning?

Probably a memorial to someones fat daughter or wife, similar to the statues to the "goddess" dolls, that the feminazie like to parade about, but then again that was the time of the Seven Emporers.

Disasters are always looming. Most likely it was a raid or invasion of some kind. Mankind's history is a long series of disasters from the four horsemen: Famine, Pestilence, War, and Plague.

A late third century disaster, that the locals never recovered from. Say, 390, just to have a number. The legions were gone by that time, I think.

Perhaps a Welsh and/or an Irish raid? It's too early for german or nordic raiders to penetrate so far inland.

So much for my fair lady's claim that in Hertfordshire, Herefordshire and Hampshire hurricanes hardly ever happen.

To a pagan? The slowly growing power of Christianity in the Roman world.
