Some rabbonim regularly claim every natural disaster comes straight from Hashem as a punishment / warning / call for tesuhva, whatever, for us.
My opinion is that this is complete nonsense.
Who care what your opinion is.
Yidden look up to their rabbonim for guidance.
Not internet pundits.
Yes, every natural disaster and every non-natural disaster that occurs is a message to us from Hashem. This fact is explicit.
What that message is can sometimes be explained to us by our gedolim.
