Sandy's strength and angle of approach combined to produce a record storm surge of water into New York City. The surge level at Battery Park topped 13.88 feet at 9:24 p.m. Monday, surpassing the 10.02 feet record water level set by Hurricane Donna in 1960.

Damn!! Good the storm didn't hit at high tide, and that there wasn't a full moon, thereby increasing tidal surge..

Oh wait.. there was..

But, of course, it's due to many humans staring at the moon, lustfully luring it in closer, right?

Or maybe it's the gravitational pull of all the fast food gulping obese people in the NE US??
