Hurricane Sandy is one of the most chaotic systems ever to come up the East coast. A meteorologist for Philadelphia radio station KYW believes it has the lowest recorded barometric pressure of any storm to hit the Mid-Atlantic United States.
Normally, low barometric pressure results in much stronger winds than Sandy’s category 1 status; however, this storm is no normal storm. It is a Frankenstorm.
Weather Channel meterologist Stu Ostro, said Sandy is a “meteorologically mind-boggling combination of ingredients.”
