As the day progressed a distress from the HMS Bounty was received and it was reported the ship was taking on water and the crew of 17 was forced to abandon ship into two life boats on the coast of NC. Unfortunately due to the conditions the Coast Guard was unable to respond immediately.

On October 30th NYC awoke to 50 fires in Queens and devastation throughout…
It is said that Hurricane Sandy, now known as Super Storm Sandy will break records like no other storm…and it isn’t over yet.
My thoughts are with everyone who has felt her wrath.
Sandy was surely a disaster that will be felt in the nortteast for quite awhile. Some people in New Jersey do not expect to have power restored fo a week to ten days.
Those storm photos are intense…so much destruction. The cleanup is going to take a while.
