Should sims experience extreme weather events, or other natural disasters?
Hurricanes/typhoons/tropical cyclones, tornadoes, earthquakes, derechos, dust storms, blizzards, ice storms, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, etc.

I'm all for this kind of stuff happening in the game as long as it's done properly. There absolutely should be an option to disable it for those that don't want it. Major disasters should also have a HUGE knock-on effect on the neighbourhoods and it's residents.
They should also be coded in a way so they don't happen all that often. I know things aren't always as realistic as they could be in The Sims but I'd hate to have to encounter an earthquake one day, a tornado the next then a few days late another earthquake or something. One or two disasters within a Sim's lifetime would be plenty.
They could of course make districts or entire neighbourhoods that are prone zones for various disasters are something. Sulani would be good for volcanic rumbles or eruptions because there is an active volcano. Another neighbourhood could be prone to tornados and so on.
