Mother Nature has a wild side that has all of us beat. We all know she’s destructive, and with one gust of wind, can destroy the lives of thousands of people. Based on these photographs, which we’ve collected from real people on the internet, we can see firsthand just how <\/span>wild Mother Nature is<\/span><\/a>. These photographs captured large fallen trees, splitting a house in two, intense dust storms, flooded kitchens and metro stations, and cars buried under dozens of feet of snow. Next time it rains, you might be grateful that you’re only getting a little bit of water and not a destructive snowstorm! <\/span><\/p>\n

Intense Dust Storm<\/span><\/h2>\n

If this picture doesn’t show Mother Nature’s wild side, then we’re not sure what does. This person was on a plane leaving Phoenix, Arizona<\/a> as this dust storm rolled in. Those people sitting on the airplane must’ve felt relief mixed in with FOMO. The people on land experienced the dust storm full-on, which was either incredibly fun or terrifying. Either way, this bird’s eye view is remarkable, and it’s safe to say this person was in the right place at the right time. At least they weren’t digging sand out of their ears for days afterward like everyone else on land was (via <\/span>Bored Panda<\/span><\/a>). <\/span><\/p>\n

Snowed In<\/span><\/h2>\n

According to this user’s post, they said, “I guess I’m not driving anywhere today.” They’re right about that one. And they’re probably not going anywhere for a while. It’ll take several hours of digging their truck out of the snow to make it safe to drive or easy to access. When this happens, it’s just a good excuse for Netflix and Chill time. Hopefully, they’re stuck at home with a partner and loads of popcorn. This must be one of the biggest snow storms<\/a> of all time (via <\/span>Bored Panda<\/span><\/a>). <\/span><\/p>\n

Black Skies In England<\/span><\/h2>\n

This picture portrays summer in England. We all know it rains a lot in England<\/a>, but black skies? That’s terrifying. We’re not sure who would want to live in a country that’s prone to black skies, even if it looks like it’s from an action movie. Maybe the world is about to end, and this is the start.

Utah Wind Storms<\/span><\/h2>\n

Wind storms<\/a> can get gnarly, especially in the West of America. They can get so bad that they cover the entire front of people’s houses. This house got the short end of the stick. They’re not getting out through their front door anytime soon. It looks like their front yard suddenly decided to grow a bunch of trees and start a forest. Hopefully, their neighbors helped them dig them out, and they were able to escape through the front door, instead of a window (via <\/span>Bored Panda<\/span><\/a>). <\/span><\/p>\n

Broken Door<\/span><\/h2>\n

There’s a reason why they say people need to prepare their homes for snow storms. This restaurant in Iceland<\/a> had a broken door during a severe snowstorm, and Mother Nature proved her wild side. Without fail, she took over the restaurant with her snowy beauty and showed the owners who’s boss. Let’s hope they cleared the snow quickly, otherwise, it’s an unwanted restaurant decoration they’ll have to deal with (via <\/span>Bored Panda<\/span><\/a>). <\/span><\/p>\n

This picture looks like it’s from the world of Narnia. After two days of intense gale-force winds at Lake Erie<\/a> in Hamburg, New York, many of the homes froze over and were buried beneath dozens of feet of snow. Let’s hope these people were able to get out of their houses because, by the looks of it, their doors are frozen shut. And their windows. We can’t even begin to imagine how freezing it must’ve been.

It looks like they’ll have to get another welcome mat soon, but it might be best that they wait for summer. Mother Nature can ruin even the most minuscule things, like welcome mats.

Mother Nature Prefers Convertibles <\/span><\/h2>\n

Mother Nature didn’t like this BMW and decided it needed to turn into a convertible with an open roof. Like the flooded house, this car was in the wrong place at the wrong time. It goes without saying that if they had been only a few feet forward or backward, the tree would’ve missed their car completely. Of course, they had to park directly underneath the tree’s falling path, succumbing to its treacherous weight. That’s a sight for sore eyes. Let’s hope they didn’t discover their car<\/a> this on a Monday, otherwise, that’s a pretty bad way to start anyone’s week (via <\/span>Bored Panda<\/span><\/a>). <\/span><\/p>\n

The Most Dedicated Fans You’ll Ever See<\/span><\/h2>\n

Those Buffalo Bills fans<\/a> love the sport. Not only did they make it to the game, but they were sitting there, freezing. There’s ice forming on their jackets and hats. We’re not sure we love any sport enough to sit through a game and freeze, while snow piles up next to us on the seat, but it’s admirable that these guys did.

Stairway To Heaven<\/span><\/h2>\n

This one is quite beautiful. Heavy rain turned this stairway into a waterfall, and Mother Nature proved her beauty. This one is more of a gorgeous outcome than destruction, which shows that Mother Nature can make things more beautiful. Too bad people probably need that staircase to access the top, though, otherwise, we’d probably wished the waterfall would stay.

Buried Car<\/span><\/h2>\n

After a wicked blizzard, someone decided to check on the state of their car. It turns out they couldn’t even get into their car, let alone see it. The car disappeared underneath a blanket of snow<\/a>. It looks like they’re not accessing their car anytime soon. Let’s hope they don’t have anywhere urgent to be, like school.

Fallen Tree<\/span><\/h2>\n

Here’s another example of Mother Nature’s wild side. After a tree fell<\/a>, it pulled the entire lawn up with it. This just goes to show how powerful and heavy trees are. With minimal effort, this tree managed to rip an entire lawn up with it as it crumbled and fell to the ground. Good thing there wasn’t a house next to it, or a person wasn’t standing next to it.
