(CBS Information ) BELMAR, N.J. - The huge story in the Northeast wasn't politics, but the nor'easter that just blew in. The same places that were swamped by Sandy are getting lashed Wednesday evening by high winds, rain, snow and a mad sea that threatens to flood the coastline all over again. More evacuations have been gotten, and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie may have had the best line when he said he was awaiting the locusts and pestilence next. Over 600,000 residences and companies in 6 states are still without power nine days after Sandy. That number may expand with this new storm. On Wednesday in Belmar, New Jersey, urban area staffs rushed to reconstruct the sand dunes wiped out by Hurricane Sandy.

Key:

  • Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
  • The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
  • The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
