It is not a major hurricane by the technical definition, but is still quite dangerous. Currently, as of the evening of October 26, 2012 Sandy is a category 1 hurricane with sustained winds of 75 mph, and is expected to hit the U.S. east coast a little bit above that strength. The storm has already claimed more than 40 lives and will likely claim more when it makes landfall.
