In fact it led to a massive amount of criticism of the government spending money on storm recovery. This will be even worse because of the lack of flood insurance purchased in the Northeast. Recovery is going to demand more federal dollars than the Gulf Coast did. Tuners/rebuilders will not be busy until people assess housing damage and get other aspects of their life moving again. Most are going to be well underinsured and homeowners does not cover flood damage. Pianos come long after shelter.

But Not only are tuners going to be very busy, the silver lining of the storm is that it will have a tremendous economic boost for the entire Northeast,  if not to the whole country. It might the kick in the ass this country needed to get us going, just as WW II got us out of the depression .
