East Coast Tsunami

Though certainly not "technically" a tsunami (no earthquake triggered a tidal surge), I fear the damage from Sandy will prove to be the costliest storm in US history. The scope of the destruction can not yet be evaluated. The repercussions of Sandy are not yet knowable because the storm is ongoing- with disruptions just now reaching the Great Lakes. When finally tallied, the deaths will sadly but surely exceed fifty and the cost in lost commerce and repairs will be more than one hundred billion dollars.
