My BIG worry in NYC (besides being ground zero for 'man mad disasters') is what is called "The New York Bight Scenaro" . . . If a major (or even not so major) hurricane came up the shore . . .
Yeah. That's the one you typically see in disaster management training materials when they want to induce headaches and nightmares, along with SF or LA "9.0". (we used to also see "New Orleans Cat. 5") It's not going to be pleasant.
BTW, the people of NYC showed impressive spirit and resilience, your emergency services folks were great to work with, and everyone treated us genuine kindness and appreciation when we were up there after 9/11. It was the only bright spot on an otherwise bleak deployment.
