TL;DR Summary

A recent nor’easter caused significant beach erosion along New Jersey's coast, particularly affecting areas like Ocean City and North Wildwood, but spared Philadelphia from severe flooding. The storm's onshore winds and high-pressure systems continue to threaten the fragile beaches, which have been heavily eroded over the past two months. Despite the storm's impact, no major injuries or damages were reported, and the weather is expected to improve in the coming days. The ongoing erosion and lack of federal funding for beach replenishment raise concerns about the future of Jersey's beaches amid rising sea levels.
