Tropical Storm Andrea LB NY

Tropical Storm Andrea moved through the Long Beach NY area dumping somewhere near five inches of rain on us. There was bound to be flooding when you factor in it was a New Moon and the heaviest rain coincided with the evening high tide.

This is a brief news clip showing the flooding on our main road Park Avenue in the center of Long Beach.

I went out this morning to check on conditions on the beach to see if it was fishable. Turns out the sea was all roiled up. Bad for fishing but the surfers were having a blast! Some of the waves looked to be about seven feet high - give or take.
