Keep An Eye On The Ocean Level
If you are along the coastline in the Ring of Fire, you should know that receding water often means trouble. A good indicator of this is when the coral reefs become visible from the shore. Avoid staring at the uncovered beauty of the Pacific Ocean and get yourself to high ground as soon as possible. This often means a tsunami is about to hit. This natural disaster happens when an underwater earthquake occurs and displaces the water above. The waves can move at 500 miles an hour or as fast as a jet! If you think you are safe because you are not in Asia, you might want to think again. Although it is more rare, tsunamis occur in other places as well.

A Wall Cloud Might Transport You To Oz
We all know how calming it is to simply lay on the grass and watch the clouds go by, right? However, if you ever see a wall cloud, it is time to head to the nearest shelter. Wall clouds rest lower than other thunderstorm clouds and extend up to five miles wide. The fast-rising air often leads to a drop in pressure below the storm, which leads to the formation of wall clouds. This could translate to danger since it could become a tornado if the cloud rotates. We have all seen Wizard of Oz, right? A tornado might have been the start of Dorothy’s journey, but they will wreak havoc in real life.
