God, there was rain everywhere. There was around 7 inches of water whereever you went, storms every 20 minutes.
That was a bad day.

get out
-40 C, shit was cold
Got stuck in a tropical storm in spring suddenly during a walk of mine. Was in a short sleeve shirt and shorts which didn't help. It was raining so hard I couldn't see more than 5 feet in front of me. Took me 45 minutes to get back home. It didn't help there were retarded hecklers thinking they were tough driving by in a car yelling shit at me.
If you mean "Most extreme weather you've survived but weren't directly in" a tornado hit my area, so it would be that in that case.
Hurricane Rita. We were just outside the danger zone, but there was still some crazy weather still.
Also a guy tried to rob us one night. My dad caught him at gunpoint with his 357. and called the police
PAISE DA POLICE
Hurricane Georgous, I was 3 years old when it happened, then Hurricane Hortense, I was 5 or 6 when it came.
I was directly in both hurricanes by the way. Also the snowpocalypse of last year.
Went on vacation in Virginia a couple summers ago, went to an amusement park. So fucking hot, got back to the car... Thermometer read 113F, and it was in the shade. Rides were being closed due to heat, that hot.
Then again I'm a cold weather person, I wear sandals all winter, -10C who cares. Haven't really been anywhere more extreme with temperatures though, or other weather for that matter.

Basically this, but in Minneapolis.

An apartment building across the street from my house had its roof ripped off.
An F2 tornado, golf ball size hail, lots of lightning.

Few tornadoes, a funnel cloud that was over my school at one point, some blizzards and lots of -50/-60C(with windchill) temperatures and at one point it was -70 with windchill. We also got some +50C temps over summer with the humidex.
It was -35F here in Minnesota last month, and that was [b]without[/b] windchill. Shit was cold! Also since I'm in Minnesota I experience tornados every year. Hear about that tornado that wiped out Wadena last year? I'm less than 30 miles from that town.
A sandstorm and/or a thunderstorm... yep
That giant red dust storm that his Brisbane a while back, The Queensland floods (I live ~1km from the Brisbane river)
A few intense storms which passed right over us, lightning strikes every few seconds, the tree out the back got hit and exploded, sending chunks of redwood ~30m away. you couldn't see outside very much because the water was coming off the roof like a waterfall
Several tornadoes, flash floods, tropical storms, extreme heat, extreme cold, severe blizzards and snowstorms, massive lightning strikes, probably more but cant think of any right now. I live in Pennsylvania in the USA, so pretty much all you do is travel 40 miles in any direction and the weather and climate system is completely different. It's a clusterfuck of all types of severe weather. A sampler package, if you will.
Oh and I live right on top of a fault line, which last had a noticeable quake in the 80's. Will probably give way again soon according to graphs.
For now though, being that it's visible across the street in the park, it's just an annoying muddy big ass crack in the earth filled with fish and grass and mud and stinky shit from all the dogs that squat in it.
Hurricane Ike went directly over my house.
I've been near a tornado, or at least near enough that mom called and told us to go sit in the bathroom.
We're supposed to have a pretty big storm this morning in west virginia, so probably that
A few hurricanes in Georgia, but now I live in Cambodia, so every day is extreme weather.
1999 in France, wind of 300 km/h.
A while ago the humidity was rising and the Barometers was getting low and according to all sources, the streets were the place to go because that night for the first time at just about half-past ten or the first time in history it started raining men.
a wind storm that was strong enough to make it hard to move
