The most dangerous of these is an earthquake. Earthquakes strike without warning, meaning that people can only respond once they hit.

A tsunami is probably next as although warning times may be a few hours, it can be difficult to evacuate large population centers. However, areas high up will be fairly safe.

Next come tornadoes, which are the same thing as twisters. Most tornadoes are weak and unlikely to injure or kill however warning times are usually only a few minutes even for very strong tornadoes. Tornadoes affect fairly small areas, but can produce small pockets of very severe damage.

Finally come hurricanes. Although hurricanes typically have higher death tolls than tornadoes, these are spread out over a large area, so the danger at any given location is typically less than that of a tornado. Additionally, alerts on hurricanes can be issued several days in advance

All this being said, all of these events are dangerous and should always be taken seriously.
