CO disasters?

[zzzippper]

I've only been in CO for a year. Now that I'm thinking seriously about preparedness I visited the Red Cross page. They said to be aware of the types of disasters that could hit your area. Other than the obvious wildfires and occasional blizzard, what else is possible locally? I know Lockheed Martin built in Waterton because it was seismically stabile so I guess earthquakes are out.

Wild Fires, Blizzards, and Tornadoes are the 3 biggest ones we have to deal with. Then there's the remote chance of the Yellowstone Caldera, Solar Flares, Viral Outbreak, Economic Collapse, the works haha. Just be a prudently prepared person with the means to protect yourself and property, and magically you'll already be better prepared than most people, for just about anything.

Civil unrest caused by anything is the biggie, IMHO.

Earthquakes have happened: http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquak...do/history.php

The mountains were likely created by massive earthquakes, so I'd tend to think there may be a slim possibility of another someday, maybe. Other than that, what's been mentioned already.

Well per Davsel's repeal 19th amendment thread... an influx of women in general.

There are some fun documents to read here http://www.dhsem.state.co.us/division/resource-library including the states plan for a volcanic event. You can find good info on this site.

One of the biggest I've seen recently is flooding,look at Manitou Springs.
