Многие разные стихийные бедствия, связанные с погодой, происходят на Земле каждый год. Все они могут быть очень опасны для людей. Самые крупные стихийные бедствия причиняют большой ущерб, ранят и убивают людей. Когда знаменитый ураган Галвестон обрушился на США в сентябре 1900 года, весь город Галвестон в Техасе был разрушен, и погибло более 6000 человек. Ураганы часто вызывают масштабные наводнения. Ураган «Агнес», произошедший в США в 1972 году, не был сильным, но принёс дожди, вызвавшие наводнения и гибель 122 человек. Ещё более страшное наводнение произошло в Китае в 1998 году. Его вызвали сильные дожди. Погибло почти 4000 человек. Наводнение разрушило дома и оставило миллионы людей без крова; большие площади сельскохозяйственных угодий были повреждены.
