Swift tried to give me a load headed to Farmingdale, NY... yeah fuckin right.. thats over on long island and u wont catch me near eastern NY anytime soon with all the ruckus going on.
What a joke,all this hype over a storm barely a class 1.
Even 70mph wins can be dangerous, and since this storm was such a large one, these winds can go on for quite some time. It's not just the wind, it's also the massive amount of rain they dump, and the storm surge.
I have a good question... How will the Giants and Jets play their home games? NJ has been hit, no question about that. But besides football, I think that Hurricane Sandy was one bad muthafrigga! I saw the news on CBS and there was a lot of destruction. (If a BFG 10k really existed, Hurricane Sandy would give the BFG a run for its money. I think that Hurricane Sandy could do some more damage than a BFG). Anyways, I live in Montreal, QC, Can. and even I felt some strong winds. Even Quebec felt the effects of Hurricane Sandy.
Closest I've been to a Hurricane was Hugo back in the late 80's,so im relatively still fresh meat.
I was 7 years old when hugo hit in south carolina in 1989. I remember it well, It came right along side of florida and slammed into South Carolina. Hugo was a bad ass cat 5.. devastating.
The big picutre.is.. the northeast.is.not.used to hurricanes like this. Ive been through seven (7) hurricanes and drove through 2 of them in an 18 wheeler. To me its nothing because im used to it. But for those who are not it can be difficult and they may not know how to correctly prepare. Again be safe.

Cat1 can still do damage, tidal surge and swells on coastal regions will be strong,and with the cold snap in play now say hello to snow.
My hometown area needs to concern themselves with the Cold Snap / Hurricane Precipitation being brought in. They are calling for a Blizzard of epic proportions in the Appalachian mountains/valleys.
To those who are in the path of Hurricane Sandy, Be safe, get shelter and do not be hard headed and think you can ride it out. Majority of the area the Hurricane will be hitting is considered low lying area's (flood zones) such as New Jersey, New york, Virginia, Maryland, Rhode Island, Massachusettes and so forth. Check back in soon if your in this area so we know you are all okay.
