Sandy

If you were looking to hear how New Jersey is "Stronger than the Storm," yesterday's joint hearing of the State Senate and Assembly Environment Committees was not the place for you.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo says he will use part of New York's share of federal Superstorm Sandy aid to "fully compensate" storm victims who had flood insurance claims denied because of a rule barring payments for damage caused by earth movement during a flood.

When the Superstorm came ashore almost 11 months ago, it not only destroyed property - it left many of us on edge, stressed out and worried about the future.  One local organization is here to help.

Superstorm Sandy victims in Ortley Beach will no longer have to drive to Toms River Town Hall to get questions answered by the Building Department.

In a decision that's reverberating all along the superstorm-strewn shoreline, the Harvey Cedars couple originally given $375,000 for compensation related to a protective dune on their beachfront property has settled with the state for one dollar.

Hurricanes.  Tornadoes.  Nor'easters.  Blizzards.  Flooding.  Plenty of weather conditions to worry about.  Extreme weather appears to be staying with us.  That's why a nationwide campaign is now underway, focusing on the need for better protections.  It's all about staying ahead of the storm before, during and after.

Two charities are teaming up to commemorate the first anniversary of Superstorm Sandy with Sandy Service Days.

Hundreds of Toms River residents looking to rebuild after Sandy may soon have more protection from rising flood waters.

Superstorm Sandy recovery efforts press on almost eleven months later and he frustration from displaced homeowners continues to fester.

An appraiser sent by the state recently assessed the value of Bob and Pat Smith's house, nearly a year after floodwaters from Superstorm Sandy reached midway up the living room walls.

New Jersey's Attorney General's Office is investigating the awarding of a no-bid contract for Superstorm Sandy cleanup to a company with ties to the wife of Belmar's mayor.

Next month marks a year since Superstorm Sandy came barreling into New Jersey, devastating many areas and changing our landscape forever.
