YOU MAY BE GETTING OUT JUST IN TIME!!!!!!!!
It's so true! The subways and highways flood if there's a heavy rain! The infrastructure is so old that it's really not safe at all.

We're also on a fault. An earthquake would, of course, do us in. The tall buildings
aren't earthquake-proof in any way. I think they are windproof to a point.

Janet,

I'd still rather have snow and ice than a twister. At least I would know what to do during a power outage. It sure doesn't sound pleasant though.
