HURRICANE SANDY HITS NEW YORK CITY, 6MILLION WITHOUT POWER

Hurricane Sandy yesterday wrecked havoc on Northeast corridor of the United States from Washington and Baltimore to Philadelphia, New York and Boston, leaving 16 people dead and lots of damage to infrastructure. The city has shut its mass transit system, schools, the stock exchange and Broadway, and ordered hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers to leave home to get out of the way as Sandy zeroed in.

Superstorm Sandy knocked out power to at least 6.2million people across the US East, and large sections of Manhattan were plunged into darkness by the storm, with 250,000 customers without power as water pressed into the island from three sides, flooding rail yards, subway tracks, tunnels and roads.
