EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the sheer magnitude and destructive power of Hurricane Sandy, one of the most devastating storms in recent history. Taken on October 28th, 2012, by NOAA's Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES-13), this satellite image showcases the immense size of Sandy as it looms off the east coast of the United States. With a diameter stretching an astonishing 1500 kilometers, Sandy became the largest hurricane ever recorded in Atlantic history. As it approached landfall, several states along the US east coast declared emergencies and initiated mass evacuations from low-lying areas. The storm was expected to make its first impact in New Jersey on October 29th before merging with two other storm systems and heading northward. The photograph reveals a mesmerizing swirl of clouds surrounding Sandy's eye, showcasing its cyclonic nature. It serves as a stark reminder of Mother Nature's raw power and her ability to unleash catastrophic events upon humanity. The image also highlights how advanced meteorological technology allows us to observe these severe weather phenomena from space. Hurricane Sandy left an indelible mark on American history, causing widespread destruction and claiming numerous lives. Its impact was particularly felt in New York City where flooding devastated parts of Lower Manhattan and caused significant damage across various neighborhoods. This print stands as both a testament to our understanding of meteorology and a haunting reminder that we must remain vigilant in preparing for future extreme weather events like Hurricane Sandy.
