I'm not sure if there is a better way to get this achievement but given that there isn't much information out there I'll tell you how I did it. If you have a better method or unlocked it some other way, please let me know and I can update the solution.
This did not occur for me during any of the scenarios. Thanks to a discussion here I was able to unlock it during an Endless Mode game (thanks to the people involved there).
First, in the game encyclopedia (press
and 
once), the following are listed as disasters:
• Fires
• Plague
• Avalanche
• Drought
• Lightning Strike
• Wild Animal Sickness
• Blizzard
• Large Scale Bandit Attack
Find The Icy Hold scenario in the Endless Mode list. In the Settings, make sure Bandit Attacks* and Disasters are both selected.
*I'm not convinced there was a Large Scale Bandit Attack, but I wanted every chance to get the 4 disasters as quickly as possible.
Now play - set up your town and pray to the RNG Gods. To be honest, I'm not even sure which disasters I got (or, at least, which events counted as a disaster). I saw a notification that an avalanche had hit (not sure where - I kept my town fairly central) and there were plenty of fires, plagues and bandit attacks; possibly a thunderstorm too. Point is, this map will generate at least 4 unique disasters so it's just a matter of time.
I was just short of 1.5 hours when the achievement unlocked. I build up my town and played 'normally', keeping the economy running, completing tasks and fending off the bandits. So just keep going and eventually it will unlock.
Edit April 2023:
A tip from Inferno9209 to make things easier to idle:
If you have a large bandit attack and successfully survive it, complete the quest, then if you get any more bandit attacks in the future when you have completed the quest don't hand it in and you don't seem to get anymore bandit's attack, that way you can go afk easier to wait for the others to pop, otherwise you have to keep pressing skip on the character dialogue that appears.
Good luck!

I played for 2.5 hours on the map "Ice Stronghold" and the trophy dropped. It's not clear how the game calculates. The city survived a storm, rain, fires, plague and bandits, but the trophy fell after another attack by bandits (about the 10th time somewhere).

I also got it at the Ice Stronghold. This is one of the few maps where there is an avalanche. A couple of tips:
- the quests are of the same type, so there is no need to complete them; after completion, let them hang with a green tick, then new quests will not appear and the randomness will be in favor of weather conditions.
- I had an avalanche, fires, plague, raids of robbers (it is advisable not to complete their quests for a while, then there may be a big raid, it can also be counted), when the thunderstorm began I saved, the thunderstorm ended, I loaded into the beginning of the thunderstorm and a couple of seconds later lightning struck and set the house on fire and the trophy fell out. Autumn is short, so as not to wait for a new thunderstorm, do not miss the chance, it is better to replay it several times while waiting for lightning.

The trophy didn't drop. I waited 4 hours for the card + another 2 hours for a new game. then I returned to the first map, the game played itself and boom within 10 minutes the trophy came out.
