Most weather models have hurricane Sandy making landfall along the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast Coast between Monday and Tuesday.

According to , hurricane Sandy's winds will be strong over a large area and capable of downing or damaging many trees and "possibly blowing out windows in skyscrapers." The storm may also bring three to 10 inches of rainfall in along the coast.

Forecasters across the Northeast have said the storm could cause billions of dollars of damage to public infrastructure, businesses and private residences.

Walter Dearing , vice president of recovery services and customer resources support at SunGard, said customers are already executing portions of disaster recovery plans.

SunGard, which provides remote business continuity and hosting services, operates two types of facilities on the East Coast: one houses data center equipment that can be turned on and accessed by user companies; the others are "mega centers" where employees can go to work where desks and computers are readily available and pre-configured to go.
