Sharks Swimming In NJ Now: I will admit, it is bad here! The wind has been non-stop and its’ been raining quite heavily, too. Still, at least I don’t have to look out my front door and see this!



Lights out, Manhattan. Creepy. From promenade.

New York Subway Flooded
Superstorm Sandy slammed into the New Jersey coastline with 80 mph winds Monday night and hurled an unprecedented 13-foot surge of seawater at New York City, flooding its tunnels, subway stations and the electrical system that powers Wall Street. At least 13 U.S. deaths were blamed on the storm, which brought the presidential campaign to a halt a week before Election Day.

For New York City at least, Sandy was not the dayslong onslaught many had feared, and the wind and rain that sent water sloshing into Manhattan from three sides began dying down within hours.

Still, the power was out for hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers and an estimated 5.7 million people altogether across the East. And the full extent of the storm’s damage across the region was unclear, and unlikely to be known until daybreak.

In addition, heavy rain and further flooding remain major threats over the next couple of days as the storm makes its way into Pennsylvania and up into New York State. Near midnight, the center of the storm was just outside Philadelphia, and its winds were down to 75 mph, just barely hurricane strength.

“It was nerve-racking for a while, before the storm hit. Everything was rattling,” said Don Schweikert, who owns a bed-and-breakfast in Cape May, N.J., near where Sandy roared ashore. “I don’t see anything wrong, but I won’t see everything until morning.”

As the storm closed in, it converged with a cold-weather system that turned it into a superstorm, a monstrous hybrid consisting not only of rain and high wind but snow in West Virginia and other mountainous areas inland.

Hurricane Sandy Sinks HMS Bounty, 2 Missing

The crew aboard the HMS Bounty 90 miles southeast of Hatteras N.C., in the Atlantic Ocean had to abandon ship, according to the U.S. Coast Guard. Fourteen members crew were rescued from open water early Monday, while a few still remain missing.

The Coast Guard’s news release stated the life-jacket-wearing crew boarded two life boats among 18-foot seas with 40 mile per hour winds.

The Associated Press reported the crew being composed of 16 members, two of which remained missing. But the Facebook page for the ship says the crew included 17, meaning three would still be unaccounted for. The rescue took place at 6:30 a.m. Monday.



Latest Hurricane Sandy Satellite Photos

If you had any doubts about the scale of Frankenstorm Sandy, check out NASA's latest global Earth image to see its size compared to the entire planet. We are now updating this post with images, video and warnings from NASA, NOAA and other sources as they arrive.
Update 17: Latest update from the National Hurricane Center says the storm strength has increased. "The center is expected to landfall along or just south of southern New Jersey coast this evening or tonight."

New York is flooding already and the storm is NOT in full force yet. This one could really flood the subway system.

According to NOAA, "Sandy is expected to intensify as it interacts with an upper level system moving from the Great Lakes." The northeast region "may experience a widespread damaging storm, possibly of historic proportions".

The agency says "Sandy is expected to slam into the New Jersey coast later monday night, bringing heavy rain and damaging winds" to all areas. They warn that you shouldn't pay attention to the center of the storm, as all areas will have significant impact.

This is getting kind of scary—Sandy is hitting so hard that could really flood the New York City's subway system. Learn about it here

Parts of Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens are already flooding and the storm isn't over the city in full force yet. That will happen around 4pm today. Take a look at these images, taken just a few minutes ago:

Update 15: NASA's night shot, acquired by the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) on the Suomi NPP satellite around 2:42am EDT.

Update 14: NPR just reported that Starbucks have closed all its locations in NYC. How's that for a disaster? They also say this may be the biggest storm ever in the region.

Update 13: If you think Sandy is going to be just another Irene fizzle, think again; this animated GIF shows just how much stronger Sandy is at this stage in the game. And it's only getting stronger.

“Frankenstorm” Sandy: Man Made Monster Or An Act Of God?

Is Hurricane Sandy being steered to the East coast of the United States using the weather modification technique known as HAARP? The government has dubbed this storm ‘Frankenstorm’. Sure connotates a ‘man made monster’, doesn’t it? We’ve been reporting all week that HAARP has been nailing us here in the mid-Atlantic region up to New England.

From Yahoo:  Government forecasters say a big storm that they’re calling “Frankenstorm” is likely to blast most of the U.S. East Coast next week.




What they’re not telling you is that this was ‘the plan’, an epic storm that could put things all along the eastern seaboard ‘on hold’ for a while. Listen to the forecast below. The ‘perfect storm’ is approaching. Man made or an act of God? Buckle up! We could be in for a wild ride!
