You predicted it was just going to rain a lot; you completely ignored everything reported on storm surges.
Even now, you're concerned with the hurricane classification and missed the fact that barometric pressure, tide timing and bathymetry of the New York Harbor/Long Island Sound were the currently predicted causes of flooding, not simply windspeed.
As I responded to your comment, "hurricane" or "tropical storm" classifications were not appropriately descriptive, as Sandy was predicted to (and did) merge with another system to morph from a warm core tropical style system to a cold core nor'easter system. The area of the storm was particularly large, which was another reason for the "super" attribution.
