ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (AP) - Damage from a brutal nor'easter will cost hundreds of millions of dollars to repair, authorities said Thursday.
The storm left a swath of devastation from the beaches of South Carolina to the mountains of Maine. It knocked out power to hundreds of thousands of people and is being blamed for at least 18 deaths nationwide.
Disaster response teams fanned out across the Northeast, cataloguing damage to public and private property. In just one northern New Jersey county, Bergen, the toll was estimated at $300 million alone.
