The storm Sandy has made a huge impact on the northeast coast of the United States. Honestly I haven’t been watching any major news until this week so I didn’t even really learn about the storm until Monday.

This is news because of the interest in the United States. Also I think about all of the national buildings in that area of the country. President Obama has officially declared a major disaster in New York City, New Jersey, and Connecticut.

This is also affecting larger businesses whose bases are in New York City.
