The damage and devastation is mind boggling.
I agree. It's almost more than you can comprehend.
The storm has downgraded and is over central Canada now with high winds and heavy rain. Some damage in Ontario and Quebec, but a pittance compared to NYC and area.
We are beyond lucky here, but the outer tentacles are reaching us and bringing wind gusts, heavy rain and thunder storms over the next two days. It's very mild at 15C (59F).
We're having short periods of utter calm and then a wind gust with lashing rain.
I just heard that some of our Power Corp. crews are heading for the US to help out with the recovery now that the danger to us is small.
Damage estimates have been announced...it's approximately $50 Billion dollars.....or about 1/2 of what Obama wasted on green energy companies that have gone bankrupt.

The Daily Mail has a page with some of the best pictures all in one place of the devastation:

Good link. There are some really good pics there.
I don't think one could understand how these people feel until you have lived through something like this 
A few of us here have been through it.
I was in one in Florida...the one that leveled homestead (?) South of Miami.
But I was at Bradenton and it still was intense enough for a Pennsylvania boy!

That was Andrew. I worked on the cleanup in Homestead. I have been through at east six direct hits. The worst was Donna in 1960.
Paul so far all here seemed to have come out ok
Glenn lives in a Sandy affected area too I think. Someone else lives in Maryland

Ok I was not sure so we will still have to wait and see. KeithH lives in Maryland that I know about
Friend of mine in NYC just posted a load of photos taken from his apartment on FB - devastating. CNN was showing footage of Atlantic City this morning - there's nothing left! This is Katrina, but worse, all over again and it's not as if NYC hasn't had it's fair share of tragedy in the last 10 years.
Dave lives in Maryland also. I cannot think of his username at the moment.

Maryland, Delaware, and Virginia didn't get hit nearly as bad as New Jersey, NY, and Pa. so they should be OK.
