It Could Happen Tomorrow is a television series that premiered on January 15, 2006 on The Weather Channel. It explored the possibilities of various weather and other natural phenomena severely damaging or destroying America's cities. This included: a Category 3 hurricane hitting New York City, an F4 tornado destroying Washington, D.C., dormant volcano Mount Rainier re-activating and destroying towns in the surrounding valleys, a tsunami flooding the Pacific Northwest coast, an intraplate earthquake impacting Memphis, Tennessee, wildfires spreading into the heart of San Diego, a huge earthquake leveling San Francisco, a flash flood in Boulder, Colorado, and a flood in Sacramento. More recent episodes included an earthquake in Las Vegas, an F5 tornado ripping its way through Chicago and Dallas, and more.
So far, the only scenario that has come true is the Colorado floods, which started on September 9, 2013.[citation needed] Because Hurricane Sandy was only a category 1 and not a 3 when New York was hit, the first episode technically hasn't come true ― although Sandy was the closest call since the series was ended.
