Ocean Grove Beach. 11 am on October 28, 2012. iPhone image by Paul Goldfinger. Click to fully appreciate the photo.
Sandy was well on its way on October 28, 2012, but some shore areas were talking evacuation as early as Oct. 26. At the OG beachfront on October 28, the curious showed up to look at the ocean, but they could not appreciate the force of the storm which would hit the Jersey Shore early the next morning, October 29, 2012.
Internet: “On October 29, 2012 Sandy made landfall in New Jersey near Brigantine, and was accompanied by heavy rains, 80 mph sustained winds and a record-breaking storm surge that coincided with a high tide and a full moon.”
A lone photographer was down by the surf.
