Ocean City, Md. (WUSA) -- Shops, restaurants and hotels at Delmarva coastal resorts are hoping a strong Labor Day weekend helps undo the economic damage wrought by Hurricane Irene last week.
Maryland's Comptroller reports statewide tax revenues dropped by more than $2 million dollars thanks to the precautionary evacuation of Ocean City, Maryland August 26 and 27.
Irene dropped nearly a foot of rain, but in the end did no significant damage to Ocean City.
Now, Ocean City's Mayor is among those now trying to lead the way back for the Labor Day weekend.
