I’m in my home office writing this early in the morning. Exactly one year ago, my family rode the night out in this room as Superstorm Sandy swept through New York City. This room is in the back of the house. Our street is lined with big, fine old sycamore trees, and those trees don’t have deep roots. We fretted that one of them might come down on our heads as we slept.

We were lucky; our trees survived. Some of our neighbors weren’t so fortunate; a block away, two trees crashed through a roof, taking down power lines and a transformer, plunging the neighborhood into darkness for a week.
