Monmouth County. Go to the Asbury Park Press online - it’s the lead article. Disaster!

You’re right, though, that the gasoline lines have disappeared.

OK, thanks -- I'll check that out later.

There's something to keep in mind down there along the Jersey Shore, and it hasn't been on the radar screen for too many people but will eventually hit home hard when things settle down and a rebuilding effort begins. I'm pretty sure that FEMA disaster relief and post-disaster recovery funds are not going to be available for any recovery/rebuilding work involving vacation homes -- and that applies to an awful lot of real estate down there.

Personally, I think this was one of the primary reasons why Chris Christie was so adamant about getting the president up here quickly ... because there's no mechanism in place to address these particular catastrophic financial losses under current funding rules. Without a massive Federal intervention, a lot of the Jersey Shore may never recover.
