First-Person Account: Montauk, Hamptons Devastated by Hurricane Sandy [PHOTOS, AUDIO]

This afternoon we had the chance to speak to East Hampton Star reporter Russell Drumm, who has been covering Sandy since it came ashore and devastated the iconic Long Island community.

Drumm took some time to speak with us about his experience. Here is his full interview:
