Hampton Roads Virginia is pretty safe. It would take an very big asteroid or super volcano in the West to cause us much harm – and at that we would be among the last to go.

"Women and minorities hardest hit..." Only because of the two white Russian cosmonauts tending the space station in orbit when it hits.

They forgot lake-effect snow. You know... leaving us looking like a scene from The Day After Tomorrow.

I thought global warming/cooling (depends on what kook group was predicting at the time) and the populaton bomb were suppossed to have ended life on earth years ago. At least that's what the doom sayers in the 1970s were predicting.

Buffalo, Cleveland and Detroit aren't disasters enough for you?I'm west of Lake Michigan, so I don't even think about those cities . . .
Now if Lake Michigan would rise to meet the Mississippi River, that would be a disaster of biblical proportions (at least in my neck of the woods).

We on the west side of Lake Michigan just don't seem to get much lake effect snow anymore (famous last words).

Colorado is looking better and better. East Central New Mexico is supposed to be the safest place.

The Great Lakes is a very safe area to live in, virtually immune to all natural disasters. Tornadoes are a rare occurence in this are usually only having one or two in a given 50 mile area every year or so. The threat of a super volcano doesn't stretch far enough to effect the great lakes nor does a massive earth quake.
The only threat is flooding which is usually weak and only comes every 10 years or so.
