What's the worst storm you can remember?

When my children were little we had a terrible storm hit the area. It was the beginning of October and it started raining very hard. Then it got cold. Snowflakes the size of walnuts were dropping from the sky. The ground covered quickly and the trees were weighed down from the heavy snow. You could hear the branches breaking from the weight of the snow. The power was off for 24 hours, we were the lucky ones. Other areas lost power for up to 3 weeks. There was a lot of flooding as the rivers and lakes swelled from the melting snow and the rains that followed.

We had a thunderstorm come through a few years ago thad had tornadoes in it. It went through this little town south of us called Jarrell Texas,and a lot of people were killed. It was really scarry. I had my boys in the bathroom, in the tub. There was warnings in the area. we were lucky, and didn't get much damage..

Ok I live in lake charles when hurricane rita hit I was in a town called windfield it is a little over 3 hours away from where the storm hi but there were trees falling and power went out for 2 days very windy very scary

the wrost storm was when the sky turned purple and red and a lil black

I don't really remember a specific storm, although a tornado did hit my hometown last spring. What I can remember through actually expeirencing it was the Flood of '93. That was just amazing as to how much it would rain. I never knew areas could get so much rain, and to see rivers rising in your own back yard made it pretty darn scary.

here in our country , we got a typhoon and no snowstorm..i remember a supertyphoon hit in our island last december 1992..it was really scary..our house was shaking and i feel that it will be gone with the wind nad i thought its the end of the world..all we did was to pray and thanks god the storm calm down..on the following day,i saw tress uproote, electric post fell and our neighbors roof gone..

i never been through any storm, my friend. thanks God!

Mine was earlier this summer when we had a tornado hit out back yard. Knocked down several of my big oak tree's. Luckily it missed our house but it destroyed our backyard.

Over here, in Montreal, QC, Canada, it was the ice storm of january 1998. It looked like it was the end of the world. Different areas of the province were out of electricity for a week or more. Everything was covered in ice. I used to work in a supermarket, and ppl came to buy candles, bread, drinks, and anything that wasn't rotten. Our store alone registered for 56 000$ in loss. People were cold in their heat deprivated homes, some slept in school gyms, on the floor, with their kids. This was definately the worst storm i remember here.

A couple years ago we had a major icestorm in KC. The leaves hadn't fallen, so all the weight from the ice brought them all down. We were without power for 2 weeks. It was just awful.
