New York – New York Governor Andrew Cuomo estimated that the damages from Hurricane Sandy could total $33 billion. As reported by the Associated Press (AP), the state has begun cleanup efforts following a recent snow that led to hundreds of thousands being without electricity.

Cuomo is quoted by the AP as stating of rebuilding efforts with regards to systems for power and fuel supply, “We are going to have to look at a ground-up redesign…With power outages, you paralyze the nation, and chaos ensues.”

John Monticello, of Point Pleasant Beach, N.J. is quoted in the report as stating of dealing with being forced to return to living without power, “We lost power last week, just got it back for a day or two, and now we lost it again…Every day it’s the same now: turn on the gas burner for heat. Instant coffee. Use the iPad to find out what’s going on in the rest of the world.”
