Years ago flghts between DC/NYC were cancelled so I had to take Amtrak into NYC. Arriving at Penn Station, I found the street (33rd) closed because of glass windows that had been blown out of One Penn Plaza. Never felt comfortable in the Big Apple during windy conditions again. Imagine the threat of Sandy-high winds and all those windows 50 stories up (and higher).
No problem with that as of tomorrow. Amtrak is shutting down the east coast runs. ;-)

"Election is A WEEK AWAY! Why would you postpone it? Sheeesh!!"
The storm is WAY to dangerous and a threat to America. We MUST urge the president to declare martial law and assume total and complete control of the nation. For our own sake.
A mere presidential election can be put off for a while. Perhaps a year or two until things get back in order!
All hail the messiah
Obama, Obama
The path to the new socialist motherland
Our savior, our savior

I haven't seen one yet, but there's enough info being put out in disparate threads.
Found this link very handy - the eye has started the turn into the coastline:
The eye is already moving westward towards the Jersey coastline.

The God of Israel is telling Obama and his thugs " do you really want to go there ? "
I posted something on an earlier thread. People better believe George Washington's warning.

NYC: Not to worry. Mayor Bloomturd has just passed an emergency bill forbidding waves of 16 ft and over. He will, however, allow two 8 ft wakes but not at the same time.
Boy, dummy is really on this.
You just cannot image what I’m picturing of the mayor and a big wave, like that in “The Last Wave”.

Of course you say that in jest ?
Of course beer is a temporary measure and means to drown out any pain.

Have fun folks - gonna grab some shut-eye. Catch up tomorrow if I have power! ;^)
Stay safe, all.

“Take a look at the sea levels around NYC - then tell me when you would like to plan for the safety of the 8-12 Million folk in NYC. “
OK, that is easy. Everyone should get more than a couple blocks away from any body of water connected to the ocean. Stay inside and away from windows in case some debris gets picked up by the wind. What else is there to know? Since people don’t actually live in the sea, so you can ignore 99% of the colored areas on that map.

NYC shutting down the subway as precaution is not damage being caused by the storm. Lower Manhattan after hurricane Donna in 1960.
To: brityank
WHats the storms LAST name again... Hurricane Sandy BENGAZI?.....
70 to 80 miles an hour winds are a popcorn fart..
MAybe some beach erosion.. blown down trees.. a lot of rain..
BUT shutting down the SUBWAYS!... very very suspicious..
Seems to be a “TELL” like in poker.. the liberals are OVER ACTING..
Hypocrisy on steroids, Kabuki Theater Catastrophe, Political Boondoggle, a crisis NOT TO BE WASTED..
AND THE RUBES SEEM TO BE BUYING IT!...

Actually it's not. The subway tunnels are deep underground and are below the water table. Pumps constantly run to keep the system dry. They are not designed to handle floodingz and storm surge. Last year during Irene many of the tunnels were flooded.

Those winds blowing around skyscrapers will be magnified greatly, you could even have winds blowing in every direction due to the manmade topography. Could have 1,000s of blown out windows raining shards of glass down below.

There has never ever ever ever ever ever ever been a storm like this ever ever ever ever ever before in the whole history of the human race... nay... since the world formed! Here you are again, joking and degrading about this storm on yet another thread. Are you just getting your rocks off by demeaning all of this, or what...?
You've already started in, and there hasn't been a single alarmist post. Are you simply incapable of participating in an adult conversation about this topic, or are you just that demented?
Geeez Louise, give it a rest!
