Hurricane Sandy Discussion Thread
Ath:
Great to see you back on-line, April! :up:
Carol Haynes:
Glad you survived your time trip, April- and in style :-* So sorry for all the devastation surrounding your town but life and health are more important than things! (I suppose that is easy for me to say though - don't wish to sound glib).
mouser:
Welcome back app! So glad to hear you weathered the storm.
J-Mac:
Vague Sentence alert: "In contrast to Hazel, however, Sandy was not as strong a hurricane." - In what context was Sandy not a Hurricane? When it intercepted the second front?

I think you might have misread that. It didn't say it wasn’t a hurricane; it said it wasn’t as strong a hurricane. :)

Now I'm even more lost! :huh: Saying it is not as strong as a hurricane is the same thing as saying it wasn't one, right? How can it simultaneously be a hurricane and not as strong as one?

No - not nearly the same. You need to look up definitions of hurricanes and strengths!
