A man walks next to standing water and piles of sand swept onto a road from Superstorm Sandy at Rockaway Beach on November 3, 2012 in the Queens borough of New York City. Most of the Rockaway Peninsula remains without power. With the death toll currently over 90 and millions of homes and businesses without power, the US east coast is attempting to recover from the effects of floods, fires and power outages brought on by Superstorm Sandy.
