and it's so shocking because it's like... there have been multiple widely publicized, historic, horrifying 4s/5s in the past 20 years. like how can you be a contemporary of hurricane katrina and not know that. boggles the mind

it's not really something most people can conceptualize unless they've lived it. i can sit here and describe hunkering down through katrina watching actual cars get blown around like toys outside because i was young and dumb and too cocky to evacuate, but the sensations of it, that terrifying feeling of the entire building swaying around me, the impact from that crash in the unit above mine when a tree (not a branch, an entire uprooted tree) went through it... it all sounds like a shitty disaster movie for anyone who hasn't experienced it. no one really respects hurricanes until they live through one, imo.

Tornado anon and are you me
I still remember hunkering down and covering my head in case cinderblocks collapsed on it and listening to the building being ripped up and my atheist ass begging god for my life out loud around other people and my best friend not knowing if his brother was dead or alive lol

Pisses me off to see people take this shit lightly
