The freakishly robust weather phenomenon now known as Superstorm Sandy has left millions without power and billions of dollars in damage in its wake…and is still moving westward across the country.

Dean is civic scholar in The School of Arts and Sciences at Southern New Hampshire University and he’s also author of the popular website nhpoliticalcapital.com.
