The right turn of the hurricane was actually typical. Cold fronts coming down always push a storm to the east. It's when no cold front is approaching that hurricanes can make landfall in the NE.
Why did every news reporter ignore the massive swirling hurricane though? There’s footage of them actually showing the hurricane heading straight for nyc and they completely ignore it.
I remember tons of coverage of it as it approached NYC. What made me mad is so much of the damage could have easily been prevented (blocking up subway station entrances, moving equipment on ground levels up one floor). My office had a field station on the water, and could have moved their computers and other equipment up fairly easily, but did nothing, and lost everything. The water was about 4 feet high in the building at the height of the surge. If the storm had not hit at high tide, it would have caused minimal damage (tide range of about 6 feet).
A cold front came down and pushed the hurricane out to sea. An almost reliable phenomenon for hurricanes heading for the NE U.S.
Sometimes I can't tell if people on this site are joking when they promote some of the things here, or if they really believe it. And then the question is, "Are these people here to distract from the truth by appearing to be nut cases?"

What are you talking about? I’m referencing the storm which was about to hit NYC right on 9/11 but did a full 180 and turned around.
9/11 was clear sunny skies. No storm damage no surges, just a plan that was able to go through uninterrupted.
