Superstorm Sandy: Six Months Later
Six months ago today, Superstorm Sandy slammed the northeast, where recovery is far from over.
FOX News Radio’s Jeff Monosso reports from New York:
Six months ago Hurricane Sandy slammed into New Jersey, knocking out power, cable and internet service to more than two-thirds of the more than 8,000 surveyed by Consumer Reports in the tri-state area.
(Reynolds) “Landline phone service was lost by more than half, and cell phone service, hot water and getting gas for cars was lost or impossible for at least a third.”

And while the public sees boardwalks being rebuilt, the devastation just blocks away remains.
(Reynolds) “Nearly half of all of the claims that have been for insurance that were $40,000 or more were still pending in March.”
More than half of all homeowners in the survey reported property damage.
