Sandy was a hurricane (the 19th of the season) that formed in the Caribbean, traveled north over the Atlantic off the coast of the US, then veered suddenly west into New York and the vicinity. A hurricane is an extremely powerful cyclonic storm with winds exceeding 75 mph that can be hundreds of miles in diameter. Most hurricanes that have landfall on the US form in the Caribbean.
