This week, a huge storm named Sandy brought death and destruction to Caribbean countries and the eastern United States. Sandy started as a tropical storm in the Caribbean, where it left at least sixty five people dead. Sandy’s next target was the eastern United States. The storm caused damage up and down the coast. There were damage estimates of up to fifty billion dollars. Officials have blamed Sandy for at least ninety deaths in America. Police say at least fifty nine of the victims were in New Jersey and New York.
    Recovery efforts are continuing in the affected areas. On Thursday, more than five million people were without electricity. On Friday, New York’s main power company said it hopes to return power throughout Manhattan Island by Saturday.
