SEASIDE HEIGHTS, N.J. — Residents of the Jersey shore will finally be allowed to return home Friday more than a week after Hurricane Sandy devastated the area. According to officials, about 1,200 of the 1,500 homes are uninhabitable after the strong winds and waves destroyed houses and ravaged the shorelines. Only certain streets will be accessible to residents who will be allowed to bring two suitcases to gather their belongings.
