# For seeing a comet or experiencing an earthquake one should recite the Bracha Oseh מעשה Beresheet. <Ref>S”A 257:1 says that for seeing a comet or experiencing an earthquake one should recite [[Oseh Maaseh Beresheet]] and if one wants one can recite the Bracha SheCocho UGevurato Maaleh Olam instead. Mishna Brurah 227:6 is clear that it’s either one Bracha or the other but not both. This is also the opinion of Vezot HaBracha (pg 155, chapter 17). Artscroll Siddur just quotes the more primary Bracha quoted in S”A, Oseh מעשה Beresheet. </ref> | # For seeing a comet or experiencing an earthquake one should recite the Bracha Oseh מעשה Beresheet. <Ref>S”A 257:1 says that for seeing a comet or experiencing an earthquake one should recite [[Oseh Maaseh Beresheet]] and if one wants one can recite the Bracha SheCocho UGevurato Maaleh Olam instead.

# For a strong wind as in a hurricane or tornado one should recite the Bracha of [[Oseh Maaseh Beresheet]]. <Ref>S”A 227:1, Mishna Brurah 227:4 writes that any wind which is uncommon is sufficient for a Bracha of [[Oseh Maaseh Beresheet]] but it would have to another type of wind to recite SheKocho UGevurato Maleh Olam and it's better to always recite [[Oseh Maaseh Beresheet]]. Halacha Brurah 227:6 agrees with Mishna Brurah and gives hurricanes and tornadoes as examples. See also Vezot HaBracha (pg 156) who writes that it must be a very strong wind. </ref> | # For a strong wind as in a hurricane or tornado one should recite the Bracha of [[Oseh Maaseh Beresheet]]. <Ref>S”A 227:1, Mishna Brurah 227:4 writes that any wind which is uncommon is sufficient for a Bracha of [[Oseh Maaseh Beresheet]] but it would have to another type of wind to recite SheKocho UGevurato Maleh Olam and it's better to always recite [[Oseh Maaseh Beresheet]].
