Jersey Shore Storms
I found this web page that shows some of the destruction along Long Beach Island, New Jersey during the winter storm of 1992. I thought it was kind of interesting in light of the current controversy regarding whether sand should be pumped on to the beaches down there, or not.
I also found this picture of Sea Bright. Up until the mid-90s, this is what most of the beach in Sea Bright looked like. I can't tell exactly where this picture was taken, but if I had to guess, I would say its probably about where McLoones is located. This picture of Ocean Avenue in Monmouth Beach is pretty cool as it shows the waves coming over the wall during a storm.
Here is a overhead photo of north Sea Bright, New Jersey showing the beach before sand was pumped onto it and after. The bridge you see is the Highlands Bridge (Rte.36).

Wow. That last picture is amazing.
I liked the old Sea Bright with less sand. The ersosion this year was pretty severe and it doesn't look like it will be a long time before the beaches disappear again.
No better way to trash your brakes than to drive through a few inches of salty water.
