Winds were sustained at 90 MPH at landfall.

Two years in a Row now Midlantic/NY/NE region is preparing for a late October Hurricane-like Storm.
After living a lifetime here with virtually no such events, it's amazing to be prepping again.
80 mph is Not the end of the world, but damage and flooding Could be very serious and we May see evacuations throughout the area.
Let's hope it weakens or veers east, but almost all models say otherwise.

Hurricane Sandy: Potential Serious U.S. Impacts - weather.com
Confidence continues to grow that Sandy will be a major threat to portions of the U.S. East Coast.
Obama and Christie are touring the damage tomorrow.
I wonder if they will "do lunch?".
I woke up with no cable this morning, but I never lost electricity. It was not too bad here at all.
To those people in the storm surge area, I can assure you, it will be a pain.See, not such a pain in the ass, as the media is trying to present it.

I hope all had flood insurance, I suspect many did not, because theses events are rare.
Don't bail them out, it is harsh, but our Federal Government is not charted to do so.Bail them out! Why banks can be bailed out and average citizens can't?

yeah - Breezy Point, NY got off easy.... :shock:
Look up Breezy Point, NY and see what happened.
I think that is actually fire damage, But I think the flooding kept the fire dept out of the area.Holy mackerel!
How was your personal experience, Dragonfly?

Ah, so that's the neighborhood that burned down? But trust me, there are worse things than that.
Yes, there are worse things. What is your point exactly?
My point was, the media likes to exaggerate. eace Agree?

I was hoping you were just being sarcastic in an attempt to be humorous, but now I'm not so sure.
I am sarcastic ... towards the media. They make it sound almost like the Deep Impact movie, which clearly is not true.
