Yea lots. It looks like a warzone around here, lower Manhattan STILL has no power. Nassau county (West LI) is on water restrictions, and the outer beaches on the south shore were flattened leaving people stranded and without food, power, water, plumbing... It's bad

I'm in Suffolk on LI and its pretty bad. I was in my jeep checking out all the damage the night of. Going through 2 feet of sea water, down trees everywhere. Feel bad for a lot of people. My car is fine, my house is fine and I have power after a few days of none.

I love having the jeep for stuff like this, going into deep water, running over branches and crap without a care, being able to pop curbs and get around obstacles its nice.

Berkeley Twp NJ Lost a lot of homes and washed up an amazing amount of sand and bay mud! I work for the Townships water company and we were working no stopped through the storm. Running 1400gals a min of water to 6 Structure fires at one time, but couldn't make it to one home that burnt right down to the foundation. A 42ft boat washed up on Harbor Inn Rd. Just crazy looking along the water front!
