Jersey Shore has inspired many famous singers like Bruce Springsteen and Bon Jovi, and it was the backdrop for the infamous MTV show, “Jersey Shore.” Sadly, after Hurricane Sandy, it became a symbol of destruction: the shore isn’t what it used to be, Atlantic City got flooded, and the boardwalk at Seaside Heights, an old hangout for John Bon Jovi, nearly vanished.

New Jersey is still struggling to asses damage but already some are wondering whether the state will ever be able to replace the iconic landmark know as the “Jersey Shore.”

While these conversations are happening, people are trying to get back to their every day lives; going to work, going to school; going to the grocery store, the pharmacist, the doctors office. Because the public transportation system still struggling in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy, many people are just hopping into their car to get where they need to go. This has created a huge demand for gasoline from stations which might be unable to pump fuel because of power outages or simply have run out fuel.

Last weekend New York Harbor re-opened allowing the delivery of more than 8 million gallons of gasoline and another 25 million gallons of fuel is expected this week. In the meantime, a nationwide decrease in the price of gasoline is also expected to hit the northeast bringing welcome relief to anyone who needs to fill-up. This week alone the price of gasoline plunged more than 7 cents a gallon nationwide and the price is expected to drop even further in the coming weeks.

This is good news for people who have seen little good news for the past week.
