The Northeast does not handle storms very well. Sandy had declined to a tropical storm and still did major damage.

When the Moon is in the right place to make spring tides and the hurricane has a 500 mile span, lots of flooding follows in flood zones. That's what hit New York and New Jersey, lots of water. When you live less than ten feet above mean sea level along a coast, you are at risk. There are many places beyond the Northeast that are susceptible. New Orleans is another story. It's below mean sea level. They have a death wish.

I would never live near the coast and only a few feet above sealevel. My Sister and her family of five lived in Ft. Walton Bch. when one came right over them.

My parents lived around 30 miles inland on high land and told them to come stay with them but not to bring anyone else as they only had one bath and two bedrooms. It was a large house so the rooms were large but still not many of them.

Well Ann brought her family and her next door neighbors.

When they got there they constantly used the toilet for urinating and then would flush it. Within an hour the tank was empty. Nothing you can do about it tho as you can’t just put them out in the hurricane.

But whoever decided to build a city below sea level and then fill it with democrats deserves a medal...
