Superstorm Sandy's victims brace for new storm


David Bernard, chief meteorologist for CBS' Miami station WFOR-TV, reports that between Tuesday night and early Wednesday morning the storm will begin to gather strength off the Outer Banks of North Carolina.

The weather will likely deteriorate across the Northeast during the day Wednesday, Bernard reports. Even inland areas like Washington, D.C., could see a heavy, wet snow Wednesday evening before changing over to rain. The bad weather could last until Thursday night and possibly even Friday night.

As more than a million students joined the morning rush hour Monday for the first time since the storm, commuters continued to wait - and sometimes sleep - in their cars in long lines for gas. Other commuters packed the limited-service Long Island trains so tightly that some people couldn't get on.

"We're a gallon away from turning into a Third World country," New York commuter Scott Sire said Monday.
