You don't experience extreme weather in the UK?
It happens sometimes (like the current flooding in the south west) but its pretty rare.
But ice doesn't eat houses, we don't get any hurricanes, tornados are extremely rare and feeble compared to the ones in the US, we get the occassional earth tremor but they are pretty feeble. We don't really get any extremes of hot and cold either.
Where I live its a few degrees colder than average and it can be a bit breezy but that's it really, not a single snowflake has fallen anywhere near where I live this winter. I have never personally experienced a hurricane, tornado, earth tremor, volcano, ten foot snow drift or tsumani and probably never will. The weather here is pretty dull but changeable sort of sums it up really.
We need to punish the French, ignore the Germans and forgive the Russians - Condoleezza Rice.
