STORYLINE:
New Jersey residents are making the best of the major flooding that has shut down roadways and damaged homes following the weekend-long snowstorm.
High winds and rising tides created Hurricane Sandy-like impacts on homes along the New Jersey shoreline.
Utility companies in the area are reporting that more than 20,000 customers are without electricity one day after the powerful winter storm packing high wind and snow battered the state.
Residents were seen sorting through damaged homes and even kayaking through the flooded streets as New Jersey Governor Chris Christie decaled a state of emergency for the weekend.
