Its also why Katrina wreaked havoc on New Orleans...the city is below sea level, it wasnt designed for that type of weather. As far as storms go, Sandy wasn't that bad. Neither is an 100ºF day in Texas, but Alaska? Shits gonna go bad. Context matters here more than the "class" of the storm. | ||

Like, if Hurricane Sandy hit in Idaho there'd be massive property damage because Idaho is not a place that is prepared for hurricanes like, say, Florida is. Hurricanes of that strength and ferocity may hit certain areas with regularity, but NY is not one of those places-- it usually only sees storms like this once every 20+ years. As a result, a lot of damage happens. The media hyped it up, but it's still a dangerous thing, and the fact that other places encounter this more often (places that deal with it regularly and are not as densely populated) is somewhat of a non sequitur. Right, that was basically my point. I think we can all agree that Katrina was a terrible storm. However, Katrina hitting New York could have been the worst natural disaster in the history of the US. Sandy's devastation comes from the area it hit, rather than the storm itself being super terrible. Any hurricane is bad news if its makes landfall at hurricane strength. <3 to you northeasterners. I hope everyone is safe. I know what its like. | ||
