    Answer: A hazard is a condition that has the potential to cause harm.

    A natural hazard is a potentially harmful situation, where a person places himself in a naturally unsafe zone.

    A natural disaster is a large scale destruction of life and properties by the forces of nature.

    A natural hazard can become a natural disaster in some cases where the natural harmful situation a person places himself in, is acted upon by the forces of nature on a large scale.
