I've only been in Sandy in 2012 sitting in JC for 5 days in a highrise, listening to the howling wind and watching plate glass railing bulging out in a frame. And i think it was only 55mile winds with gusts, but on higher floors it's more.
We have storm windows and all but only 100 yards from Hudson. We had 5' of water in the lobby (only overnite for a short time) and waterpumps were off, so lugging water in giant tubs from the lobby for the bathroom..: elevators on generators manual operation.
But we still had emergency electricity , tv, internet. Dry, no leaks, fridge ok.
That's the worst i want to experience 😏.
