We know that life can be dangerous. I will admit that I didn't know that Wisconsin was in so much jeopardy though until I saw 12 somewhat terrifying risk assessment maps from FEMA about potential natural disasters.

I officially regret finding these new risk assessment hazard maps from FEMA. It's actually a helpful tool which allows you to zoom in anywhere in America and find out what the potential danger is for a natural disaster where you live. Here are some fun examples minus the fun for Wisconsin.

First, it's tornado danger in Wisconsin which we already knew about.

I would have thought wind damage would be covered by the tornado risk assessment, but no, I suppose this would include straight line winds and derechos in Wisconsin.

Let's not forget about Wisconsin flooding from the rivers.

Here's one that mystifies me a bit. FEMA thinks there's a teeny tiny chance Wisconsin could be impacted by a hurricane? Really?

With all the Wisconsin forests, don't forget about the possibility of wildfires even if it's not as significant as the western states.

I wouldn't lose too much sleep over these potential natural disasters in Wisconsin. It's good to know that the government overlords are watching over us though.
