1. Milwaukee, WI*
Not surprised at all. We had thunderstorms pretty much every day for most of June and July.

I think you read the list wrong. Milwaukee and Mesa are "relatively immune" cities.

Speaking from personal experience,
Having lost a home and farm buildings to the F-5 Tornado of April 8th, 1998. The entire state of Alabama should be added to the list.
May we never have to live through that again.

Miami's the most dangerous! lol

My city's always winning the worst competitions.

Last year Miami and the surronding area got royally raped by Wilma and Katrina. My school's right on biscayne bay, we got it bad. One building got its roof ripped off, the gym's AC unit was no where to be seen, the library was leak central, the book room was the pacific ocean, and the cafeteria looked worse than Iraq. We lost about two weeks of school between the two hurricanes. But we made it up with slightly longer days until christmas and still got out for summer before other high schools.

Then lets not talk about the roof repairs. Those guys are the ones that give us hispanics a bad rep. There are still houses with busted roofs down here.

"35. Memphis, TN*"

We've always known Memphis is the prime target for an earthquake. And if it happens Jackson becomes Memphis, Lexington becomes Jackson, & I have to move to Parsons to get to where I am today near Lexington.

We actually had a 2 part newspaper article on what to do if the earthquake hits. And the people are totally retarted. They tell you telephone lines will be down, cell phones will not work, roads will be impassable, etc. Yet then they give you a list of telephone number to have on hand & tell you where centeral command will be & to make you way there if neccessary, if your kids are in school to pick them up, etc, etc, etc.
