ok so hurricane sandy is now down graded to superstorm sandy and wasn't a hurricane at all infact its being referred to now as just plain old "sandy"
yes 13 people have been killed so far and a bit of flooding and wind damage but did my street make the world news when we had our "mini hurricane"

i do believe your right, fire brigade turned up and got it down. then a guy from the council with a chainsaw and cut up the 60 0r 70 foot conifers that were through my fence into the garden along with half of my apple trees :(
the view i used to have of 5 conifers
Image

after the storm only 2 left
Image

To be fair though the storm is 500 miles across and yes, 13 people died (so far). Just because its a relatively low number that shouldn't detract from the fact that people have died due to this weather. I think they have every right to maybe overreact a bit (not my words), considering how Katrina caused some chaos.
