New York transport shut down due to storm

HUNDREDS of US flights have been cancelled and New York's subway and buses have been ordered to close ahead of the arrival of a feared super-storm.

Air France has cancelled all flights into New York and Washington on Monday while US airlines have called off hundreds of domestic flights.

New York airports were still open on Sunday but the airport authority warned passengers to expect disruption.

The New York subway and trains will be suspended from 7pm on Sunday (1000 AEDT on Monday), Governor Mario Cuomo announced, as he warned the impending storm is "not something to be taken lightly".

The buses will stop running two hours later.

New York's public transport system is America's largest. The subway alone has more than five million passengers a day.

Rainfall is expected to start in New York late Monday (AEDT).

Hurricane Sandy is headed north from the Caribbean to meet a winter storm and a cold front.

Experts say the rare hybrid storm that results will cause havoc over 1200 kilometres from the East Coast to the Great Lakes.
