The following are some Hurricane Sandy damage videos posted to YouTube from around Southern New England and the Mid-Atlantic. The majority of the damage in Rhode Island occurred in South County from Narragansett to Westerly where beaches washed inland during the Monday evening high tide. The Coast Guard House Restaurant in Narragansett is a total loss after suffering heavy damage. The owners have vowed to rebuild as soon as possible. Take a look at some of the videos for a better perspective on the wrath of one of the worst storms to hit the Northeast in decades.

Fred, great collection of storm video. Best pics I’ve seen were over at the Springfield MA Republican for the damage of beachfront in Misquamicut where many a day had been spent with friends over the 70s/80s on Atlantic Avenue. They’ve all moved or passed on, and didn’t have to see their incredible neighborhood obliterated, thankfully.

One more thing of note: the severe t-storm that moved through Onset MA is just a stone’s throw from Tobey Hospital, where yours truly was born many MANY years ago. Glad it wasn’t worse than downed trees.
