Hurricane Sandy: Richmond Impacts

Euro Model Run of potential snow.

Hurricane Sandy blew to the east and north of Richmond before becoming a hybrid storm slamming into the New Jersey Coast on October.

My observations of the storm were pretty tame. In Church Hill, we encountered mostly light to moderate rain with sustained winds around 5-15 MPH. Wind gustsĀ approaching 25-35 MPH were infrequent. Recorded rainfall at my house was 2.25″.
