HURRICANE SANDY MADE THE DEAD RISE AGAIN!
After having leveled huge swathes of New York City and the East Coast as
it rampaged through the region on Monday night, superstorm Sandy
inflicted a final indignity as it caused coffins to rise from their
graves.
At one cemetery in Crisfield, Maryland, two caskets, one silver and the other bronze, rose up from the ground as the sheer force of the water unleashed by Sandy swelled the ground. Powerful enough to dislodge the cement slabs that covered the graves, the sad sight indicated the indiscriminate bombardment that mother nature brought to reign over the U.S. Atlantic coastline.
The most devastating storm in decades to hit the country’s most
densely populated region upended man and nature as it rolled back the
clock on 21st-century lives, cutting off modern communication and
leaving millions without power as thousands who fled their water-damaged
homes wondered when, and if, life would return to normal.
Superstorm Sandy killed at least 50 people, many hit by falling trees, and still wasn’t finished. It inched inland across Pennsylvania, ready to bank toward western New York to dump more of its water and likely cause more havoc last night.
More than 8.2million households were without power in 17 states as far west as Michigan. Nearly two million of those were in New York, where large swaths of lower Manhattan lost electricity and entire streets ended up underwater – as did seven subway tunnels between Manhattan and Brooklyn at one point.
The New York Stock Exchange was closed for a second day from weather, the first time that has happened since a blizzard in 1888.
