People line up at a gas station waiting to fill up, Friday in Newark, N.J. In parts of New York and New Jersey, drivers lined up early Friday for hours at gas stations that were struggling to stay supplied. The power outages and flooding caused by Superstorm Sandy have forced many gas stations to close and disrupted the flow of fuel from refineries to those stations that are open.

Cars wait for gas in a line that stretches about one and a half miles in the Brooklyn borough of New York, Friday. In parts of New York and New Jersey, drivers face another day of lining up for hours at gas stations struggling to stay supplied. Superstorm Sandy damaged ports that accept fuel tankers and flooded underground equipment that sends fuel through pipelines. Without power, fuel terminals can't pump gasoline onto tanker trucks, and gas stations can't pump fuel into customers' cars. SETH WENIG/AP Photo

Motorists across New Jersey faced a second day of stressful, enormous lines Thursday at the gas stations that still had both electricity and supplies, as power outages kept many pumps out of service and tough travel made fuel deliveries difficult.

Motorists increasingly desperate for a fill-up fumed in long lines at gas stations and screamed at each other Friday as fuel shortages in Superstorm Sandy's wake spread across the metropolitan New York area, the Associated Press reports.

Four days after Sandy slammed the mid-Atlantic and the Northeast, the AP reported that the U.S. death toll climbed past 90 in 10 states, and included two boys who were torn from their mother's grasp by rushing floodwaters in Staten Island during the storm. Their bodies were found in a marshy area on Thursday.

Below are more photos and videos from Hurricane/Superstorm Sandy's recovery process. You can view previous photos and videos here.

If you are interested in donating to help Sandy victims, our own Action Line reporter Phil Mulkin has mailing addresses, phone numbers, websites and more of trustworthy charities helping the cause. You can read more on ways to help here. Also, he talks about ways to avoid Sandy charity scams here.

I will have the OU at Iowa State, OSU at Kansas State and Tulsa at Arkansas football weather forecasts up either later today or tomorrow morning early.
