Summary

Description
English: Cloud cover associated with hurricane Sandy spread into the region as early as October 27, while Sandy was still off the Florida coast. As Sandy continued to slowly approach the region, winds began to steadily increase on the 28th, with coastal flooding reported in parts of the Mid Atlantic regions over a day before landfall. The NYC area stayed mostly dry during this time period through early on the 29th other than scattered showers at times; meanwhile, heavy rain was already affecting southeastern parts of the region, especially in the Delmarva Peninsula, on the 28th, intensifying and spreading into Virginia and Washington DC by the morning of the 29th.

This image is in the public domain because it was stored on the web servers of the U.S. National Weather Service. NWS-created images are automatically public domain in the U.S. since the NWS is a part of the U.S. government. However, the NWS sites also host non-NWS images which have been submitted by individuals: these are generally shown as "Courtesy of ...". Such images have explicitly been released to the public domain by the copyright owner as part of the upload process.

As stated at https://www.weather.gov/fsd/disclaimer: "By submitting images, you understand that your image is being released into the public domain. This means that your photo or video may be downloaded, copied, and used by others."

Thus, all* images on NWS servers are public domain (including "Courtesy of ..." and “Photo by ...” images) unless specifically stated otherwise through a copyright (©) watermark.
*A deletion discussion in November 2023 ruled that Getty Images on the web servers of NWS, are to be considered copyrighted, even without a copyright (©) watermark and are the sole exception to this rule.
