No. Look at where it is on a map. Hurricanes form in the north atlantic, south pacific and indian ocean. if it forms in the atlantic, it travels west and curves to the north, affecting the caribbean and south eastern USA. if it forms in the pacific, it goes west and curves off to the south hitting the phillippenes and that sort of region. if it forms in the indian ocean, it goes west and curves to the south, hitting madagascar and areas around it i think. Never has a hurricane ever hit europe in the whole history of mankind. Hurricanes always form over the sea and go west, and then start to fade out as they go over land. so seeing that we're on the western half of a giant land mass, a hurricane could never get to us.

Very unlikely, it went ashore somewhere via New Jersey/NYC and then off towards Canada. It started as a hurricane but is now registered as a storm - a blazing storm by all accounts, but far less dangerous than when it hit New Jersey.

I tried to link up with the New Jersey webcams yesterday but they were all off line.

The Board Walk at Atlantic City is now so much matchwood.

One American to camera described it as being like the London Blitz. You can say that again, only it's on a much bigger scale right across a massive swathe of New Jersey, New York and into the hinterland of the USA and towards Canada.

The amount of damage is unbelievable - a stagger $20 billion by a conservative estimate.

I heard the death toll has now reached about 60 souls.

What we do not know is how many are buried - buried alive in the ruins and rubble.

I pray for everyone in the places so destroyed and damaged by this force of nature, Hurricane Sandy.
