Sandy Takes Manhattan
Large parts of New York City are in the dark and under water.
It's shortly after 10 p.m. here on the East Coast, and at this point, we can safely say Hurricane Sandy is in no danger of failing to live up to the hype.
In cities large and small up and down the coast, it's downright scary out there right now. The most dramatic images so far are coming out of New York thanks to intense storm surge-related flooding and power outages. That said, D.C., Baltimore, and Philadelphia are still poised to take on record rainfall and are experiencing large-scale power outages of their own.
