east coasters... are your supermarkets void of milk, eggs, and bread? local news media interviewing people as they board up their windows? apparently this storm is gonna be real nasty. i'm throwing the front end of my jeep back together right after work today and preparing for lots of flooding, downed trees, etc.

If Sandy hits Long Island, as the GFS model predicts, the storm surge will be capable of over-topping the flood walls in Manhattan and flooding portions of the New York City subway system. Fresh water flooding from heavy rains is also a huge concern. Rainfall amounts of 5 - 10 inches will occur over several hundred mile-long swath of coast, with isolated amounts of 15 inches possible.
