Wnd Speed MapDark to purple is 60+ mph. The reason why NY City is showing almost red at 80 mph. Areas getting hit are NYC Metro, NJ and Pa, Washing, D.C., as well as Chris in Rochester, Watertown, NY, the Ohio Lake Erie shore, Chicago, etc.

Did you see that crane that fell over on top of a 80 story luxury high rise apartment building in NYC. I think it was 57th street. It is still hanging off the side and everyone had to be evacuated.

Great photos. Where you get them. London Daily Mail Online. I saw them today on US media websites, so they must have gotten the rights overnight. The Mail did not ID the construction site, but CNN (I think it was) identified it today as Ground Zero.

Holy Crap!Breezy Point in Queens seems to be almost gone. October 31, 2012 (NEW YORK) -- A tiny beachfront neighborhood told to evacuate before Sandy hit New York burned down as it was inundated by floodwaters, transforming a quaint corner of the Rockaways into a smoke-filled debris field. By Tuesday morning, charred foundations of from 80 to 100 buildings were left in the sand at Breezy Point, a coastal community on Jamaica Bay known for its marshland and shorebirds. Firefighters arrived at 11 p.m. Monday to find water chest-high in the streets, and used a boat to make rescues as orange flames engulfed home after home. The water and high winds whipping the coast from Sandy kept the blaze raging for several hours as firefighters hauled hoses while sloshing in ankle-high water. "We watched the whole place go up in flames. It was hell night. It was the devil's night," said resident Thomas Reicherter. MORE at: abclocal.go.com/wls/story?section=news/national_world&id=8868001

NYC is now concerned about where all the rats from the subway will go. Imagine millions of rats hitting the streets of NY and NJ.

Only if the rats are infected. As long as they have had all their shots, everyone is fine.

I was walking back to retrieve my bus one night after an event at Madison Square Garden. They had parked us on the lower West side on a narrow side street between two warehouses. I was actually afraid to walk down the block. The rats were plentiful and were scurrying everywhere. In the gutters and along the sidewalks. Those suckers were anywhere in size from 1/2 lb to what I would estimate to be 2 or 3 pounds. They were as big as small woodchucks.
I thought I had stumbled upon a shooting of the movie Willard. lol
I have also stood on subway platforms and have seen them scurrying just below the platforms, between the tracks, eating the trash tossed there by people. I can't imagine that some homeless people take shelter in the subway tunnels.
I wonder how they will get along with the borough politicians and wall street traders. They may have to give them different colored jerseys so that the average citizen can discern the difference between them.
