Hurricane Sandy concerns

October 30, 2012 12:00 AM
People here in Utah with families on the East Coast are hoping for the best as hurricane Sandy roars ashore.

BYU junior Alex Rogers has family in Virginia and although they say they are safe, she is still concerned. 'I am a little worried because of how many trees are back home...it's pretty easy for them to fall down and hit roads or cars or the houses, so hopefully the winds won't be too bad,' says Rogers.
