This assignment is meant to be open ended, and the above should act as an outline to what should be included. However, when thinking of events to research, remember that this assignment is limited to extreme weather events. Tsunamis, earthquakes and volcanoes are NOT weather events and therefore will result in zero points if used as the topic of your assignment.
