re: #608 lawhawk

They’re figuring in the $7 billion in damage range - most in NC, NJ, Long Island, and Upstate NY through VT. NYC was largely spared, even with more than a million without power in the metro area.

And yet - we got lucky.

$7 billion is a big number, but honestly, a Category 3 hurricane smashing into the East Coast could’ve easily done a full order of magnitude more. We did get lucky.
