No! Hurricane Earl will might do some damage to Long Island, but, it will not destroy it. It will not do to Long Island New York, what the hurricane of Sept. 8, 1900 did to Galveston Texas.

What is the hurricane that hit Worcester?

For Worcester, Massachusetts: On September 21, 1938, Worcester, Massachusetts was hit by the brutal New England Hurricane of 1938. On June 9, 1953 an F4 tornado hit Worcester, killing 94 people, though it was not related in any way to hurricane activity. The hurricane, also known as the Yankee Clipper or Long Island Express, was the first major hurricane to strike New England since 1869. It made landfall on Long Island as a category 3. In 2012 Hurricane Sandy did more property damage in terms of dollars, but the 1938 storm is still listed as the second costliest storm to strike New England.
