Some Wildwood Residents Struggle With Superstorm Sandy-Like Damage

NORTH WILDWOOD, N.J. (CBS) --  Barbara Reger is having deja-vu in her North Wildwood home.

This weekend the storm, surged from winter storm Jonas, ruined the floors and furniture she just replaced a few years ago, following Superstorm Sandy.

"It's above the toilet and on the pedestal sink, right there is a black line," Barbara said.

"It looks like you got almost three feet of water in your house?" I asked.

"Pretty much, all this dry wall has to come out," Barbara replied.

Her neighbor marked Sandy's water level on the tool cabinet in his shed, this storm was close.

"About four to five inches lower," he said. "Thank God."

Flood damage is visible throughout the Wildwoods. There are also some downed trees on New Jersey Avenue.

In West Wildwood, Ed Sloane's boat drifted several blocks from his yard, trailer and all.

"It got picked up by the tide or whatever, and carried up to Pine Avenue, to a vacant lot," Ed said. "That's the first time I've ever seen a boat or trailer go."

Shore officials say the storm damaged hundreds, if not thousands, of properties, and then there are the beaches.

New Jersey Lt. Governor Kim Guadagno and Commissioner Bob Martin, from the Department of Environmental Protection, toured several beach towns, including Stone Harbor's heavily eroded dunes. In the end, the Jersey Shore could get federal disaster assistance.

"When we meet the $12 million threshold in damages, it will then go in a request, as quickly as possible to the federal government for whatever damages are appropriate under their formula," said Lt. Governor Guadagno.
