Vivid Imagery Left in Hurricane Sandy’s Wake

Hurricane Sandy ripped through a portion of the United States yesterday, leaving a trail flooding and destruction behind. Though the hurricane was only a category one — something everyone in the southeast portion of the States scoffs at while hanging out on their porches during the height of a storm — various areas the hurricane hit, such as New York and New Jersey, aren’t built to withstand such weather. If you were paying attention to social media, some Hurricane Sandy images probably slipped into your feed, regardless of where you’re from. We’ve collected some striking pictures the storm left in its wake, which you can check out below.
