Honestly, this isn't even that bad. I went outside and walked a few block for some chinese food, and the wind was at most, annoying.

Why was everyone hyping up a category 1 hurricane to be the most catastrophic event in history?

Only in the USA do they hype up a CATEGORY 1 HURRICANE.

Land of the "Smart" I guess..

Many people evacuated, I am praying for the safety of them, their homes, and the people that chose to stay.

People call me crazy, but I think this stuff is do to our harming of the environment. If we don't accept this and change, all costal cities and towns will be underwater in the next 100 years.

If you look at the ridiculously low pressure reading it's not really a category one hurricane.It looks more like a category 4 hurricane in terms of strength, but the winds never were brought down to the surface.

Now, we deal with not seeing the sun (here in NY) until Saturday because of that blocking pattern which will keep the remains of Sandy in the area and us under clouds and rain. This sucks.

Well, we might catch glimpses of the sun if it's not overcast.

It passed through Maryland, I live on the Eastern Shore and never lost power, everything besides a bit of flooding seems

Well Sandy is affecting my workplace. Company's main system servers are in New Jersey and they've lost power. Everything is running on backup generators and its super slow.

[QUOTE="achilles614"]So happy South Florida finally gets a break from being sodomized by these storms. Sucks to be you guys up north...what doesn't kill you makes you stronger!sammyjenkis898

That's what happens when you mess with Texas. :|

I'm hearing reports of an estimate of at least $50 Billion in damages from this storm and 33 people have died from this storm according to CBC in the US.

I wasn;t able to create this thread without the help of the wunderground team.

I'm watching the storm coverage on CNN. Massive damage and flooding. 80 homes burned down in a fire. This certainly changes my viewpoint that hurricanes don't hit the East Coast.

This storm was a ridiculous powerful low pressure system when it made landfall.

i had a lawn chair blown over in my backyard. it was tragic. comp_atkins

When this is all eventually over there will be other 100 dead seahorse123

CNN is reporting 97 have died.This includes the total from the US,Canada,the Bahamas,Haiti,Jamica and Cuba.It may already be over 100 dead.

Pray for the dead and their families everyone.I think this storm will be mentioned a lot at the WMO meeting in the spring and the name will most likely be retired.

I'm watching this from here in the UK, I hope everybody is safe and have enough supply of food in their homes. From what I've heard is that going outdoor is dangerous.

Looks like I survived it!

Sandy took out the power for 8 hours last night and ripped up some trees. I live in Ontario. I can't imagine it actually closer to the storm.

So this won't be hitting Nova Scotia too much?
