Frankenstorm & Christ, the Storm Whisperer

The East Coast today is facing a major threat from Hurricane Sandy, or Frankenstorm, as it has been nicknamed. It is a major storm, several major storms actually, that are all colliding to result in the potential for serious destruction. There will likely be 11ft storm surges, rain/flooding, high winds, snow, power outages, etc... It is going to very likely be catastrophic.

A few of the quotes from individuals involved highlight the seriousness of this storm:

"This is the most catastrophic event that we have faced and been able to plan for in any of our lifetimes," Connecticut Gov. Dan Malloy warned.

"It could be bad," said U.S. Coast Guard Rear Adm. Steven Rattior, "or it could be devastation."
