Hurricane Sandy was widely referred to as Superstorm Sandy. This is partly because at landfall in the U.S. Sandy had lost tropical characteristics and so technically was no longer a hurricane.

Hurricane Sandy's impact on the U.s. east coast was the result of something called a blocking pattern.

How can a hurricane strengthen over cold water such as Hurricane Sandy in October of 2012?

As Hurricane Sandy was moving up the U.S. east coast it was undergoing something called extratropical transition, meaning it was losing the characteristics that defined it as a tropical cyclone (a hurricane or tropical storm) and was becoming an extratropical cyclone. Extratropical cyclones gain their energy from contrasting air temperatures rather than from warm ocean water. This temperature contrast was provided by a cold front connected to another extratropical cyclone that collided with Sandy. Sandy had completed extratropical transition by the time of landfall in New Jersey and so technically was no longer a hurricane.
