East Coast Grinds To Halt As Superstorm Nears


Forecasters say Hurricane Sandy is about 310 miles (505 kilometers) southeast of New York City, and the center of the storm is expected to be near the mid-Atlantic coast on Monday night.

The National Hurricane Center said early Monday that the storm has top sustained winds of 85 mph (140 kph), with higher gusts. It is moving toward the north-northwest at 20 mph (22 kph). Hurricane-force winds extend up to 175 miles (280 kilometers) from the storm’s center.

Sandy is on track to collide with a wintry storm moving in from the west and cold air streaming down from the Arctic.

Major metropolitan areas from Washington to Boston are bracing for what is expected to be a superstorm that could menace some 50 million people in the most heavily populated corridor in the nation.

  1. Very interesting image rendered above, no? It looks like a question mark. As if the One above Hashem Yisboruch is asking us loudly – what are you going to do now?

    It’s obvious to anyone on the spiritual wavelength that the Holy One, blessed be He, Hashem our creator is going all out to get people’s attention with this storm.

    But, while they recognize the uniqueness of this situation, they still refuse to see in it yad Hashem – the hand of Hashem. Some conspiracy web sites are even claiming “Superstorm Sandy” is man-made, a manifestation of weather wars that was created as a weapon to upset the elections or as an excuse to begin filling up FEMA camps Chas VeSholom.

    Among all the preparation lists being handed around, I have yet to see one that included an admonition to pray to Hashem.

    It’s up to us – the Jews – the servants of God – to proclaim His Mastery over all that He has created and continues to create at every moment.

    Please don’t make lite of this post, we have to wake up Moshiach is at our doorstep waiting for us to do Teshuva so he can do his job.

  2. Chesssed- although your message is right (when we see a weather phenomenon we are to say- shekoacho ugvoruso malay olam) let’s not create mass hysteria. If you feel this is a message to you then listen to it…. you can’t make everyone drink the kool-aid.
