>> as we mentioned the storm came ashore very close to the city of atlantic city along the jersey shore . there's massive flooding there. wcau's ted greenberg is there. ted, good morning to you.
>> reporter: good morning, matt, yes. the wind is whipping here in atlantic city still, though not as strong as it was yesterday. we still have rain and, yes, can you see that we still have issues with flooding. some of the water has receded, but several parts of atlantic city still dealing with flooding this morning. the flooding caused by sandy and its tidal surge here was historic, the worst many in the resort have ever seen. we drove through atlantic city early this morning. we saw a huge amount of debris as a result of all of that water, including large wooden planks strewn about on the streets. some of that debris appeared to have come from a section of the famous boardwalk that was ripped apart by sandy yesterday. really an incredible and surreal sight to see during our travels yesterday. streets flooded with several feet of water, with large sections of the mangled boardwalk floating high. the coastliny is veered severe beach erosion as the ocean washed over protective bay ofiers and into streets. large sections of the atlantic city and atlantic county new jersey where we are is without electricity this morning with 80,000 power customers in the dark in atlantic county , more than 50% of the customers served. an overnight curfew was in effect until 6:00 a.m . in atlantic city , though much of the resort resembled a ghost town . many of the city's residents complied with a mandatory evacuation order, although everyone did not. we're told about 300 people stayed in shelters within the resort overnight, and we've seen search and rescue teams out this morning in the neighborhood to assist anyone who may be stranded this morning. again, the water slowly receding here in atlantic city , but the back bays are still so full of water because they haven't had much of an opportunity to drain back into the ocean, and there is concern about another high tide coming up later this morning. matt?
