Nor'easter 2012

A driver waits in a long line of trucks filled with sand as heavy machinery spread sand on Nov. 7, 2012, in Harvey Cedars section, on Long Beach Island, N.J. A nor'easter smacked the storm-ravaged Jersey shore a week and half after superstorm Sandy wrecked many of its beaches, dunes and boardwalks, and left low-lying communities newly vulnerable to flooding, wind damage and power outages. Public works crews up and down the shore were using bulldozers, front-end loaders and earth movers to push tons of sand back onto what was left of the beaches.
