We are on an island, this brought rain and sustained 53mph winds, and 11-15 foot waves that the surfers love.
It's not Sandy that is making it ad, it's the artic font merging with it. Bad timing for the two storms. Plus coast NE is old infrastructure (lived in Boston). It needs upgrading...
We started getting winds and rain on Wednesday from Sandy. Still windy this morning and heavy rain all night. Sandy has been effecting FL (east coast) for most of the week. The eye is east/north east from us right now.
Luckily it's downgraded now from Cat1 (which is also minor) to a Tropical Storm
