At least 2.6 million, at one point.
Hurricane Sandy was a powerful and destructive storm that hit the Caribbean and the East Coast of the United States in October 2012. It caused widespread flooding, power outages, and at least 233 deaths. Sandy was the largest Atlantic hurricane on record in terms of diameter, and the second costliest hurricane in U.S. history, causing an estimated $65 billion in damages.
It killed 26 people by direct effects, and 39 indirectly.
15 people went missing, all from Haiti, and 253 people died in the places of New York, South New Jersey, Canada and the Caribbean. Hundreds of thousands of people lost their homes with more experiencing at least some time of property damage and at least 8 million were left without power. Tens of millions of people saw rain and wind from Hurricane Sandy.
Hurricane Katrina stopped because when she reached the land she didn't have any water or power source!
Those are power flashes. They often occur when strong winds from a hurricane, tornado, or other powerful storm interfere with power lines, causing electricity to arc.
Yes. For example; during hurricane sandy the power went out. Because the power was out there were no cameras or security systems. Many stores and homes were robbed until the power was back on.
At peaks strength Sandy was a category 2 hurricane. At landfall in the U.S. Sandy was a post tropical cyclone equivalent to a category 1 hurricane.
It effected it by knocking down trees, trees knocking power lines, and most people having their homes destroyed.
If you are referring to Hurricane Sandy, then yes. Millions will be without power.
