October 30, 2012. I live and work in Manhattan. Frankenstorm (aka Hurricane Sandy) just paid a visit, killed 33 people (so far), forced Obama to declare New York a “major disaster” , left 6.7 million people without power, left downtown Manhattan under water, destroyed 50 homes in Queens, NY alone, shut down the subway, airports, bridges, tunnels and the stock market for the ?rst weather- related closure in 27 years. Here are some (graphic) photos I found around the web. - Sean Black
