Calamity (8)

I believe the answer is:

disaster

'calamity' is the definition.
(calamity can mean a disaster)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for disaster that I've seen before include "Event causing great damage" , "not a success!" , "terrible trouble" , "Star dies (anag)" , "Calamity, sudden great misfortune" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press, The Times, the Sydney Morning Herald, The Star Tribune, The Sun, the Evening Standard and The Mirror.
