Seasons
Montreal: Stricken by a severe ice storm, in a manner similar to the North American ice storm of 1998.
Sydney: Engulfed in the flames of a large firestorm that is brewing out of control during the dry summer weather. Similar to some phenomena seen in the Black Saturday bushfires, which occurred less than 3 years after this show's premiere. The scenario also describes that 90% of all investigated fires are caused by man-made activity, particularly by arsonists.
Hong Kong: The victim of a super typhoon from the West Pacific. 12 years after the episode aired, Super Typhoon Mangkhut struck Hong Kong, but thankfully no one was killed in the city as it had already weakened as a Category 1 typhoon during Mangkhut's final landfall.
New York City: In the year 2011, being subject to a powerful geomagnetic storm, causing widespread damage to electronics, and several bizarre extraterrestrial anomalies.
Description
Perfect Disaster was a one-hour American documentary television mini-series that premiered in 2006 on the Discovery Channel. The program depicted the worst-case scenario that major cities could expect in the near future if hit by extreme disaster. A large part of each episode was based around the lives of citizens from each city, with the remainder of the program showing us real-world scientists discussing the very high probabilities of these disasters.
