TOMS RIVER, N.J., Aug 28 (Reuters) - Hurricane Irene swept along the New
Jersey shore early on Sunday, knocking down trees, leaving thousands of
people without electrical power and causing flooding.
New Jersey Governor Chris Christie cautioned residents and visitors,
hundreds of thousands of whom were ordered to leave vulnerable shore
towns, to stay away until roads were clear.
"The real issue we're going to have to deal with now is flooding. This
storm is transitioning into a flooding event," Christie told reporters at
a midday briefing.
More than 100 dams in the state were being monitored for spills from high
water, with evacuations from one downstream town, High Bridge, ordered, he
said.
Christie said there were about 650,000 people without power across the
state and that number could increase during the day on Sunday because of
the sustained 45 mile-per-hour (72-kilometer-per-hour) winds.

Earlier, on NBC's "Meet the Press" program, the governor said he expected
damage from the storm could be "billions of dollars, if not in the tens of
billions of dollars."
.
More than a million people had fled resort towns along the Jersey shore
ahead of Irene. Mandatory evacuations covered all of the barrier island
beach resorts, including such well-known spots as Atlantic City, Cape May
and Long Beach Island.

Inland rivers and creeks were overflowing. The Manasquan River, which runs
from Freehold, New Jersey, to an inlet on the coast, was several feet
above flood level.
.
Christie said state damage assessments along the coast would begin on
Sunday but inland damage may not become obvious until river flooding
subsides as late as Tuesday.
