Live New York Web (And Sound) Cam
Because the only thing more informative than watching a shut down New York get blown (away) by Sandy, is hearing it live. Watch, and listen, as downtown New York, very much unprepared for what may be a record flood surge, gets the Venice treatment.

ZH is now officially part of the main stream media. Complete with useless video of the rain. Just need some idiot with a mic. standing out in it now telling us its rainy and windy
You'll do.
Stackers you are wrong
the eye of the storm will be passing direclty over Manhattan, that is a fact and don't challenge it
I guess my sarc. typing didnt come through, lol.
too late
here is the map to prove it LOL sarc off/on

stay safe all you dumbass reporters (as your camera crew employ fans and a garden hose for effect)
I can't wait for the first live shot of a fallen branch in CP
Oh my God, they're all gonna die, they're all gonna die, they're all gonna die!!!!!!!
Yeah, right.
Sensationalist bullshit if you ask me.
"Oh Sandy"
we all knew Olivia Newton was a serious bitch
Here is a possible preview of today's events. The flooding starts at 2:41 into the video.

The only sound I want to hear from the City of Doomberg is this:

The country and planet will be better off...
God (or Mother Nature depending upon your views) had a choice between Washington DC or Wall Street, he almost made the storm big enough to wipe them both out. Just God doing God's work.
When I get censored for saying fuck, shit, Jews, asshole, then, and only then, will ZH be mainstream.
It's a win-win-win. Cable News & Weather Channel ad rates double, local & state politicians get tons of BernankBux dumped into their laps, and publicly traded corporation can blame ever larger earnings' misses on The Storm of The Century™.
I wonder who bought the rights for the movie, teeeveee mini-series, novel, Broadway Show & the Chris "Still Hungry 4 More" Christie/Mayor Mike "Only Terrorist People Drink Big Gulps!" Bloomberg/Barack "Saved And/Or Created" Obama/Jim "I'll Stand In This Drive Thru Car Wash While Camera Guy Takes The Shot" Cantore/Chad "Godamnit, I'm A Weatherman, Not Nostradamus" Meyers action figures?
The storm of the century!you forgot one more 'win' .... is this storm not an absolutely perfectly-timed distraction (for POTUS) from Benghazi-gate ?!
I just reversed my long Gondolas trade from earlier this month.
Winning!
we are just getting into the second decade...and you are predicting Sandy is the storm of the century?
You have no faith.
Hi guys, sorry, just woke up, noticed it's a bit windy and drizzly outside. Anything going on? I'm on Staten Island, NY.
Who's this "Sandy" y'all kvetching about?
They've just renamed it "Satan" Island. You can go back to sleep.
Hilarious, Leopold. With comments like this, I'm indeed better off sleeping.
... and tits shouldn't even be on the list!!!
G. Carlin
Turns out Goldman Sachs wasn't doing God's work exactly to specification.
This One Is Epic bitchezzz!
Olivia was hot until she changed her style from girl-next-door to alley slut.

So you're saying there may be ancillary benefits?

My favorite dumbass reporter moment. A classic. Bimbo in a canoe.
http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=f62_1186109726
haha She's in the canoe while two guys walk by in the foreground. That's some serious flooding.
Lmfao check out the front page of marketwatch right now. Too funny.
Nice save attempt, foo ! LOL
There is no eye, only the one on the dollar bill.
There is no Dana, only Zool
I find her interesting because she's a client and because she sleeps above her covers... four feet above her covers.
Actually, since Bloomberg is mayor, I would expect the asshole of the storm to pass over Manhattan.
Get that stuttering, tongue tied CNN reporter with the Eyetalian surname !
Just wear some earplugs and then go about your bidness.
Well it's not like it's impacting the financial and political nexus of the western world along with a full 20% of the nation's population. Oh wait...
"ZH is now officially part of the main stream media."
The problem with the MSM is not that it covers disasters and other sensational news in real time. The problem with MSM is that this is ALL that it covers. A hurricane hitting NY is legitimate news and ZH would be silly not to cover it.
and where exactly in NY will it be hitting? from what I can tell its first stop in the great state of NY will be just outside of Buffalo
http://www.tropicalstormrisk.com/tracker/dynamic/201218N_5.html
don't believe the HYPE

OMGGG big moving colors!!!
I live in Philly... right where the alleged storm is/will hit.
Right now, it's trickling rain. And according to Accuweather today's the only day it will rain over 1 inch in all of the Philadelphia area.
*** NON-EVENT ***
Derp-a-derp-a-doo!
The eye of the storm is not too important in this case; what matters is rainfall and storm surge.
There isn't going to be masses of buildings wiped off their foundations by winds, there are no major areas below sea level, until the sea level comes up to them.
real-time feed from buoyd measuring sea level, air pressure and wave heights would be more useful than the statue of liberty web cam, since water coming up a few feet won't look like much. Funny thing, people are terrified of fire, but totally calm around flooding, when water kills more people than fire every year.
Near Buffalo?? Say it ain't so!
I think you read the map incorrectly. Heavy rain here, but nothing we can't handle after a summer long drought.
Never thought I would agree with you on something.
Jim Cantore and Al Roker bitches
I wanna see Jim Cramer in a rowboat heading out to sea
Only with kudblow at the helm and liesman and kiernan as first mates.
'ZH is now officially part of the main stream media. Complete with useless video of the rain. Just need some idiot with a mic. standing out in it now telling us its rainy and windy' yes, well, admit it .... we all like it that the ZEROHEDGE guys posted this live weather cam. had they not done so, i couldn't have sat here laughing so much. i appreciate everything this website has to offer, hurricane info & all !
Re the ZH video cam: Why should it be only Spain and Greece when it's damn well us too?
I've been following the news reports from here in the UK where they now say Sandy has deepened & been upgraded to cat 1 'English Summer' , god help you ...
It's not even a hurricane anymore by the time it hits land. A tropical storm at worst.
I'm so glad I wasn't in an open office or drinking coffee whilst reading that or I'd need a new job/keyboard. For what we lack in weather we make up for in humour, especially about the weather.
Local Philly news update: http://www.myfoxphilly.com/story/19935147/sandy-expected-to-be-near-hurricane-force-at-landfall
MONDAY: expected 3.77 inches
TUESDAY: expected .37 in
WEDNESDAY: 0 in
Where's the storm?
http://www.accuweather.com/en/us/west-chester-pa/19380/daily-weather-for...
Here's the rainfall map, looks like Maryland getting a lot of rain: http://www.hpc.ncep.noaa.gov/qpf/zoom/Rainfall_Days_1-5.gif
The wind and coastal storm surge are supposed to cause most of the trouble.
Wouldn't this be a special time for some failed state like "Iran" to detonate something in a major city in the path of the storm?
Shit that's close to a CAT 4 hurricane's pressure. And they are calling it a CAT1?
Catagory is purely based on wind speed, AFAIK. Why is the wind speed so low, if the air pressure is so low? Lack of difference from surrounding air?
Give me 20 mins and I will pass by in a Kayak with with a huge "Fuck you Kevin" sign blowing back in my face.
Nice.
Where is our fonzannoon Walmart Riot Video?!?
You promised!
I am so full of shit. Sorry guys. I actually went to Home Depot about an hr ago. It was open and there was no one there. Everyone is paralyzed from the drizzle and slight breeze.
It's called an MSM seizure. And it's contagious, spread by a virulent meme.
Palliative treatment consists of turning off your television.
just so i know what to root for if it is separated from all the bridges and floats far out into the atlantic somewhere is that a bad thing?
Not really because shit floats.
Commence the great deluge of Gotham..
Connection sunk already :/
Gee, reality TV. Make money off others misery.
Why not? It's the only growth industry.
like cancer
Is it just me or is everything pink now?
Will no doubt see a pink pack of camels before it is over.
pods
It's Breast Awareness Month which should really be held in the summer not the fall.
Shit... I think breast awareness should be a daily occurrence. Along with fondling.
including the only people who protest in congress
Huh? Goldman Sachs is a reality TV show?
Nothing is sacred in capitalism, motherfucker.
My friend's mom's backdoor-plaything named Kevin made $18,583 last week working from the NY Fed http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zCf46yHIzSo
...With a raft he could make make a few thousand ounces today.
Uh, yes. I hear you have a hot younger sister that is lonely?
'My mother ... was a pure woman from a noble family. And I, at least, know who my father is, you pig-eating son of a whore!" :)
Seriously, I hope no one gets hurt.
storm surge bitchez!
Go For It Sandy. Sic 'em.
Sandy is giving more justice than the entire justice department.
laugh out loud...although i hope nobody dies.
Sandy is my sister's name and she lives in North Carolina. I asked if her storm was blowing her away, yet. She was not amused.
Learn to swim...
Cuz I'm praying for rain
And I'm praying for tidal waves
I wanna see the ground give way.
I wanna watch it all go down.
Mom please flush it all away.
I wanna watch it go right in and down.
I wanna watch it go right in.
Watch you flush it all away.
Time to bring it down again.
Don't just call me pessimist.
Try and read between the lines.
I can't imagine why you wouldn't
Welcome any change, my friend.
I wanna see it all come down
Zactly.
rip tide bitchez!
speaking of storms, a russian ship carrying 800 tons of tungs...er, gold, is missing in the Pacific.
Just another "boating accident", nothing to see here.
Guess Vlad was late on a "payment" to the Norks
“russian ship carrying 800 tons of..”
It’s was carrying ore so the question is what was the gold content.. nominal, estimated, assumed, inferred, or otherwise duly misrepresented by the miners, the government or the government's official propaganda division, the news media.
Andrei, you've lost another ship?
Nice. Red October reference.
Yes. We know.
Bought to call it a day. Saw a closed off street when a scaffold Bleecker starting leaning a 5 story walkup..gonna be an interesting few days...Stocked up on Crunch Berries & Vodka.
Well, the vodka should disinfect the roof of your mouth, after receiving "Captain Crunch Mouth" from the Crunch Berries...
When I was bored as a kid, I used to separate out the Crunch Berries from the Cap'n Crunch... So I guess I have more in common with Netanyahu than I'd previously imagined...
I'm sorry but that is some funny shit!
pods
Technically, you need "overproof" vodka for disinfectant purposes. Around 150 proof and up.
wonder if that cam was up and running on sep. 11 2001?
If* it was, the FBI most likley confiscated that one too. Just like all the other vantage point video recordings of the West wall of the Pentagon, true story, go search that.
Indeed. The "men in black" were Johnny-on-the-spot around the Pentagon that day. It was almost like they had advance notice, or something.
Venice smells like a combination of the western spur of the NJ Turnpike north of exit 12 and most of Staten Island with 400x the amount of pigeons. fun city
What is similar between huricane and hooker?It starts with light blowing and at the end,she takes your home.
You got the punchline right, but the setup is supposed to be, "what does Hurricane Sandy and your ex-wife have in common"?
And into the homestretch, its Val 3, Buckaroo 15 ladies & gentlemen!!
Rising Tides raise all ships. As true for the markets can now be said for the whole island of Manhattan. Is this Karma?
i guess selling my home in flemington NJ was not a bad move after all
Hurricanes bottom of the list for reasons to sell a Jersey property.
Taxes at the top.
Flemington's a nice town, but lately, ya need to speak Spanish.
Don't you miss Liberty Village outlets ( where every other storefront is empty)
Oh, no! Seriously?
Now I'm officially crushed. Got all my Pfaltzgraff and Creuset from there.
Damn!
:/
What is happening in Lambertville and New Hope? I do hope it's still a vibrant place.
I like Flemington. Home of the Lindbergh trial. Right down Route 31 in my old haunt in High Bridge.
I miss New Jersey. I miss trees. Hills. Colours.
<Sigh>
at what point will Obama appear on TV to claim credit for diverting the storm to Philly
You forgot to add "George Bush's" storm
not correct, this is Romeny's fault, Sandy is code for Joe Smith's White Horse
How CONVENIENT, The BLS is not going to release the JOBS # prior to the Erection.........................Wonder why?.
It's a neocon storm. No warrant and it still enters your home.
Diverting to Philly?
Well, according to the MSM, Obama has been "monitoring" hurricane Sandy.
No doubt the "news" up through the elections will soon be dominated by Obama commiserating with selected victims and thanking FEMA preparations (under his leadership) and "American exceptionalism" from sparing everyone from a worse disaster than it "could have been".
Whether that will be enough to win re-election votes from a cajoled and supposedly grateful public remains to be seen.
Or maybe he'll just go to bed.
...lot of hourly people not getting hourly wages for a few days....
...with so many workers moving to p/t hourly, the potential number of unemployment claims is getting smaller, so a 'large' number like, 400k is in reality much worse than '400k' used to be...gotta love statistics and samples
Hong Kong raises land taxes for non-locals:

Not related to the hurricane, but interesting.
Vancouver should retaliate.
New Yorkatlantis
This Sandy is proof that New England was essentially uninhabited when the Pilgrims landed .... except for a few natives washing windshields with their own urine !
So we have come full circle on that in 2012. The Mayans were right.
The Mayans invented rubber and condoms .... the rest is all history !
In Mexican slang, the white sticky sap of the rubber tree "Chicle" (Chiclets ?) means cum ! If a girl doesn't get pregnant they say: "No pego el chicle !" .... the cum didn't stick !
What a shit post by Zero hedge. What would you like all your readers living in NYC to do?
Provide an entertaining death spectacle worthy of the emperor.
You beat me to it .... I was gonna say: "Fuck off and die ?" !
I'm in NYC...who gives a shit? We'll get high winds, downed trees, power outages and flooding. And then we'll clean up, like people have been doing throughout human history. What exactly do you THINK is going to happen? What a nation of fucking monkeys...we deserve the collapse that's coming....
.
Bullish for jobs....now wanted one lense wiper.
Frankenstein was a 'man made' monster.
I am going out for a walk on the streets of Manhattan but beforee I go please discuss this amongst yourselves:
Akin will win MO.
Who cares?
Seriously. Like Claire McCaskill, who helps get government funding for her slumlord husband and his low-grade nursing homes and shanty housing, is any better.
And yes, he has made millions owning this government funded blight.
Another ship has disappeared with 700 tons of Gold. Leaving the Muppets holding clad tungstin no doubt.
http://www.foxnews.com/world/2012/10/29/ship-with-700-tons-gold-ore-disa...
Um, that's 700 tons of gold ORE. At, say, 5 grams of gold per ton of ore, that's a whopping 3.5kg of gold. Street value of around $450,000.
The shipping industry plus the mining industry. Both trapped in a world of pain. Sounds like possible insurance fraud. Maybe I have just seen too much of human nature these days.
If it wasn't for these marginal threads .... I couldn't post .... I don't understand all that economic/market gibberish !
Ain't that the truth....
As for Sandy closing the NYSE...
Remember Charlie Sheen don't surf....
