NBC Philadelphia is reporting similar problems in Ship Bottom, 11 miles to the south of Oyster Creek:
Officials: Gas main explosion in NJ town suspected — Flames shooting up from sand, huge fire — 15 miles from nuclear plant — Crews unable to access area
“A huge fire was burning Wednesday morning in a New Jersey shore town that was hit hard by Hurricane Sandy.
Flames were burning all over the cut-off barrier island of Mantoloking. There was a large cluster of flames and smaller fires spread out from it, with some flames shooting directly out of the sand.”
