Well, this is my first flood. Never had an earthquake, hurricane, mudslide, etc. I've been through a handful of very bad snowstorms, though some of my friends from college went through ones that shut the city down for a week+.
As for Tornadoes - went through one when I was very young, I don't really remember it. The NWS fired off the Tornado sirens so often back home, that it was like a boy crying wolf. My brother and I would usually go outside on the golf course and watch for one, or if we were at my dad's we'd go next door (they had a basement) and have a Tornado party - sit in the garage and drink, waiting for a tornado. The good life

You wouldn't even have to moor it someplace...just park it in the garage and wait for the water level to meet it!
BTW...the house my family has out at the coast used to be a similar purple to that house!
