Very terrible stuff nature does. For some reason, I find some of the pictures beautiful. The ones featuring the storm itself and not the destruction.

I hope those devastated by this have the strength to carry on

Sisi_Kill:

Errr....people don't blame the govt for natural disasters, they blame the govt for its response or rather its lack there of and preparedness ...to Natural Disasters.

Get it straight.
Most of the time, the government receives the warnings of impending natural disasters through NIMET. The government warns people before-hand yet many people just in the typically Nigerian mentality would still stay put and say "Nnaa mehn, let us wait and see, afterall, seeing is believing". When the flood/ natural disaster now catches up with them, people on the social media start shouting government-government.
Na so e dey be.

It seems you have not heard of National Emergency Management Authorit (NEMA) in Nigeria. And it seems you have not been following their activities in recent times

Kx: [size=14pt]In Naija flood scientists reasoned that it happened because Cameroun opened their dams.

Who opened dams for New York flooding, Canada?[/size]

It has been foretold.
It is not flooding. It is a Hurricane, you can google it to know the difference.

Hurricane is caused by very violent wind which causes the water body to overflow its boundary. Its very destructive because the wind has high momentum.
But flood is caused due to high tide. That is when the level of water rises above normal. Its not violent.

Re: Images Of The Devastation By Hurricane Sandy In The U.S. by Nobody: 4:57pm On Oct 30, 2012
The death toll could probably have been in the upper thousands.


But before the Hurricane came to land more than 1 million people were evacuated by Government to safer places and every single business was closed down in the whole East Coast of the United States.



The Government actually gave residents mandatory evacuation order. What does this say about their Government compared to ours?



Meteorologists actually predicted the Nigerian floods right since February but our Government did not do anything about it.



Now they are trying to do some lame damage control. Too little, too late.

http://www.usnews.com/news/blogs/washington-whispers/2012/10/29/conspiracy-theorists-say-obama-engineered-hurricane-sandy

As Hurricane Sandy blasts the eastern seaboard just over a week before Election Day, a number of conspiracy theorists have decided President Barack Obama engineered the mega-storm to secure his re-election.

InfoWars.com, TheIntelHub.com, and ConsfearacyNewz all posted stories over the last several days alleging that the The High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program, or HAARP, helped the president engineer Sandy.



HAARP, a research program managed by the U.S. Air Force and U.S. Navy, studies and conducts experiments relating to the ionosphere, or upper atmosphere. As NASA explains on its web site, the ionosphere is important because it often reflects radio waves and scatters GPS signals, leading to "a big impact on communications and navigation" on Earth.

Because of this, conspiracy theorists have blamed HAARP for a number of natural events over the years, saying the government uses the Alaska-based program to manipulate the weather with the help of electromagnetic waves.



On Friday, InfoWars published a story arguing that Sandy "will undoubtedly produce widespread chaos and present an ideal opportunity for Obama to come off as a strong and decisive leader."

"Following the 'perfect storm,'" wrote Infowars' Kurt Nimmo, "the establishment media will naturally provide all the propaganda Obama needs to sweep the election on Tuesday, November 6, a week after the hurricane is projected to hit."

As proof, Nimmo noted that HAARPStatus.com, a site that claims to detect frequency on the ionosphere, is reporting unprecedented levels of HAARP frequency above the Eastern coast. HAARPStatus.com appears to be a site not actually associated with HAARP.



In a piece on the nonprofit web site Skeptic.com in March 2010, aerospace and computer engineer David Naiditch explained why he believes conspiracy theorists love to blame HAARP. "[It] is a gigantic, high-energy, Pentagon-funded gizmo located in the remote Alaskan wilderness that plays around with the Earth's ionosphere," he wrote, "but whose purpose seems deeply mysterious to the scientifically uninformed."

While there is no doubt Hurricane Sandy could help Obama's re-election prospects if he manages to weather the storm acting presidential, the mega-storm's effects on Americans could also help challenger Mitt Romney. As Mike Allen noted in Politico Playbook Saturday, quoting a Politico friend: "People emerging from a week of no power on Nov. 6 are going to be in a grumpy, foul mood—not the kind of mood that screams 'vote incumbent.'"
