The hurricane caused close to $62 billion in damage in the United States and at least $315 million in the Caribbean. Hurricane Sandy is the nationâs most expensive storm since Hurricane Katrina, which caused $128 billion in damage. New York was most severely impacted due to damage to subways and roadway tunnels. In New York and New Jersey, storm surges were 14 ft above the average low tide.
A simple and general rule-of-thumb for estimating a storm's low pressure contribution to the surge is as follows: 1 cm of rise above predicted tidal values for each 1 hPa below the standard atmospheric pressure of 1013 hPa. For example, Hurricane Juan had a central pressure of 974 hPa when it made landfall just west of Halifax Harbour. The pressure effect alone would result in a surge of approximately 39 cm, however, the surge measured in Halifax Harbour was about 150 cm. Clearly, a more important mechanism was at work. The wind is the key.
