Hurricane Sandy: A very serious storm

Hurricane Sandy is looking more and more like the Atlantic seaboard’s Katrina. The risk to life and property is very grave.

Flooding is already bad in places like Atlantic City, and reports are coming in that a crane is collapsing in New York City. 

Things are bound to get much, much worse before the storm makes landfall.

This storm makes last year’s tempest - Hurricane Irene - seem tame by comparison.
