Volcanic Eruption Report Abuse
This is amazing from the boiling lava erupting or lazily rolling down a hill destroying everything in its path to the huge cloud of dust afterword. The fact that they can lay dormant for years or even centuries only makes it more interesting.

Hurricane Report Abuse
The images of hurricanes from satellites speak for themselves. The visual of a funnel cloud on the scale that it takes to make a hurricane is really cool. Plus, we get to watch their evolution from a tropical storm to a hurricane as they approach the coast.

Meteors Report Abuse
These get a coolness factor, simply because of the mysteriousness of space. It doesn’t matter that we know that they are just chunks of rock that got caught up in Earth’s gravity, they are still awesome.

Hailstorm Report Abuse
These are basically just really bad thunderstorms, so while they do cause a lot of damage, especially to crops they aren't very interesting.
