Remanants of Hurricane Sandy, five months on

While the power was out for a week in this area (or even longer for some unlucky people),
there was not the real damage that Hurricane Sandy inflicted on Coastal areas. ( Of course, NYU and Bellevue hospitals, which are on the edge of the East River, had real flooding problems and it must have occurred to someone finally that having their emergency generators down on the lowest basement floors which would be the first places to flood and the last to dry out was not the wisest of ideas).

I follow the progress of Recovery from Hurricane Sandy on WNYC, which always it seems has some kind of update on a Sandy-related story on its website.
