TELL US: Was Hurricane Sandy As Bad As 'Snowtober?'

For much of the past week, Hurricane Sandy dominated the region's media coverage. Did it feel worse or not quite as bad as last year's storm?

Much of the Northeastern United States slowed down on Monday to watch Hurricane Sandy make its way up the coast toward its eventual landfall on New England. Throughout the day, residents of Stoneham and elsewhere endured high winds and power outages and in some cases, downed trees and wires.

The storm came a year after the so-called "Snowtober" storm left many Massachusetts communities without power. So which storm do you think was worse: Sandy or Snowtober?
