“We cannot believe the pictures from Brick, Seaside Heights and the barrier islands in Jersey.”
The aerial shot of the bridge connecting to the washed-out section of the islands (basically splitting an island in two, and leaving one shattered home on a tiny island in the middle) is incredible. The burned homes in Mantoloking are something else as well...
Yes,ke2, the shot of the Mantoloking Bridge basically fading into the water, and seeing a new inlet cut to the ocean there, where homes used to be, is iconic.
The other shot that comes to mind is seeing the Casino Pier roller coaster sitting in the waves where that part of the amusement pier collapsed into the sea.
The entire natural gas system on the barrier island has been compromised and must be rebuilt, along with the power, water and sewer systems.
People are being told they cannot return there for six months.
