How do i find out more about the near-future natural disasters? Is there any site about it? There are weather forecasts...but i'm not sure if there are disaster forecasts. I'm looking for Singapore/Asia's future Natural disaster. Please help me cause it's not easy to find a website that can predict what type of natural disasters are going to come about in the near-future and why. Thank you for answering!!!
P.S. I am using this info for a magazine i have to make which is my homework.

Here's the types of things that are natural disasters: hurricanes (or typhoons), floods, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, wildfires, and droughts. Since these types of disasters are very different from one another, and since the risks vary in different locations, predictions are usually made individually for a particular location, for each type of disater that is likely to occur in that location -so its unlikely you will find the info on a single site. In Singapore/SE Asia, common disasters are flooding from monsoon rains, typhoons, earthquakes, and Tsunamis. You can Google each of these along with "Singapore".
Most of these disaster can't be predicted exactly, but the probabilities can be calculated (i.e. likely to occur one in five years).
