several Floodings ... 1990 and last year and this year.. 2008...
many of hurricane remnants and it brought many tornadoes and lightnings..floodings.. many damages..
Hail storms- many times....usually small size like nickel size usually hit here.. but once in a while.. quarter or golf size.. but 3 yrs ago.. we had baseball size hails here! Boy it caused damages to many homes, vehicles, etc.
Big snow storm of 1988 which was 22 inches. but no damages...

Yeah... You forgot the remnants of Katrina! I got a dose of that bitch, in 2005, over here, in Alabama... and a nasty one too... Uh-huh... Yep.. ice storm in 1993 got this whole town shut down for 3 damn days... 5 inches of solid ass ice... 'nough to go ice-skating... Then thinking of the 1988 snowstorm that dumped 10 inches of snow... still I drove over the damn 10 inches of shit, to get a pack of cigarettes, and that about made my dad blow his stack, when I got back... but easy come, easy go... I had a 4 wheel drive Ford Escort (almost like a Subaru,) but it was a 1 of a kind of car.. but bad ass car... 6 months later I rolled the stupid s.o.b. cuz of someone's car was sitting there leaking oil, and that done the job.. Just totalled... so well I had 5-6 cars that were pretty damn good until some shit happened, and a complete loss... but back to weather....
Let's see... Worst case scenario, goes to the 1989 Tornado... and then 2nd is the 1993 Ice Storm, then 3rd was the 10 inches of shit, in 1988..... Never gonna put up with any of these buzzards cuz Mother Nature got a hell of a BAD ATTITUDE!
