Reminders of Sandy are everywhere, as work goes on to make the state more resilient

Ten years ago Saturday, Superstorm Sandy slammed into the Jersey Shore, barreling through the state. New Jersey was hit by punishing 80-mile-per-hour winds, a record-breaking storm surge and a high tide that pushed 14-foot waves up and over the coastline. Gov. Phil Murphy Friday marked the anniversary of Superstorm Sandy with state, federal and local leaders in Monmouth County.
