And on that note 9.2 is nothing...
I like the 20+ when meteors hit planets, create moons, expose the outer core and let new life begin =D
Uh... I am fairly sure quake severity is measured on a scale from 1-10. Something like 9.2 would obliterate everything it affected. I dunno if earthquake is a "weather," but it is an act of nature comparable to a hurricane, (such as in your avatar,) a severe flood, or a severe wildfire, which if I am not mistaken are all covered on teh Weather Channel when they occur.
A massive meteor hitting this planet would not "begin new life," but rather obliterate most of the old life and force the remainiing life to adapt or die. A single meteor caused the ice age on our world, with side-effects like the dinosaurs going bye bye. I don't think something like that is comparable to even the most severe of normally-occuring natural disasters. If it were to occur again, billions of people would die, because not all nations are equipped to protect their citizens from something like that.
