OK - some more Long Island (Including Brooklyn and Queens) Hurricane info

Remember - in the storm of 1938, the storm surge made it to AT LEAST Sunrise highway the entire length of the island. In what is now the Rt 110 area, the water came almost as far north as where the LIE is now!! Out by Montalk, the sound and the ocean were connected

Now, think about how many people live there!

And I know, that at least in Nassau, once the winds reach 50 MPH (steady state), ALL county personnel and vehicles WILL be pulled off the road - after that folks, your on your own

One of the biggest problems is than because of the bend in the coastline and the like, a VERY VERY large area will go under hurricane watch/warning, so LOTS of places will be bugging out, and any mutual aid will have to come a LONG way
