When talking about a specific situation "can" isn't used as in my first example. "Can" is used in general situations as I have learnt, for example, "Earthquakes can be very dangerous." But in this sentence when talking about what is generally possible is it wrong to use "could" "may" or "might"?
1. "Someone's at the door. It could/may/might be my sister." Not "can".
2. "Earthquakes could/may/might be dangerous."
