Not a disaster but I was on vacation in Cancun during the summer about a decade ago and a small hurricane went through headed north. That's pretty routine there and it was relatively mild, though my flight was delayed 24h.

When I got home, which was north TX at the time, that night the same storm went over me again. Though at that point it had reduced significantly to just a thunderstorm.

Then early that morning I got in my car and headed north to IL where my cousin was getting married. As I was crossing into Missouri, I went through a heavy rainstorm and I realized it was the same storm from before. It was pretty neat to experience it in different parts of the continent over 48 hours.
