Sandy Hook @ 12 PM 10/29

There was a steady stream of people crossing the bridge until about 2 PM


Most waves were OH to double, some triple OH further out.

I heard a rumor that the new bridge at Indian River Inlet, DE was wrecked. Anybody hear about this?

@ Offshore, Holy Crap!

Will try to take more pics as the height of the storm comes onshore, but visibility has done to sh*t. Next set of pics probably will be from tomorrow morning.

 

@johny Delaware's brand new Indian River Bridge is an absolute mess after a dune breach caused flooding both from the bay and ocean sides. All roads are of course closed.

man why are all the cops in suffolk such grade a pr!cks. Still can't get to dune road or cupsogue beach. Everything shut down. I didn't see a cop car so decided to walk over the bridge and was turned away. After the $500 ticket, don't want to risk arrest or worst.

 

Tropical Tidbits
Atlantic City, NJ has just smashed its barometric pressure record of 960mb set in March, 1932. The pressure there right now is 954mb and falling.

 

bridge is still standing....but the surrounding area is a mess.
hopefully fixing NS will become a much higher priority

 

Thanks for the update re: Indian River.... Good luck to everyone tonight.... getting pretty hairy out there.

 

Thanks for the news guys. Looks like WB or Topsail was the place to be. Why do I keep going to ****ty CB? Oh yeah, cuz nobody is down there. But had to work all weekend and Monday! Somebody shoot me!

 

That special place south of topsail and north of fort fisher was doing its thing...best I've seen it in five years

Gnar...not talking about Mase (though it was good all day Sat).

Check out Nick Denny Photography's FB page....a couple of guys made it out in OCMD today. Braver than I...

 

screw the city of VB!! super i was also at croatan from 3-dark (got a bunch of good waves despite the winds) and i parked in the municipal lot. Those asshole locked me and like thirty other cars in that lot for at least a half hour. There were men,women, and children in there and they locked the f'in gate on all of us until some ahole cop showed up, yelled at us, and then let us out. can't believe they would lock the gate on so many people in a hurricane and cold weather. freaking dicheads...
I didnt lose power here down at the oceanfront either surprisingly.

 

F*cking solid.

 

Hanna - that's an interesting way to look at it. I don't know if you are aware but there is no money. It is all on credit, on debt to foreign countries expected to be payed off with interest with our competitive standing in the future world market... We are 16+trillion and growing in debt and could mimic a European bankruptcy crisis in the near future. Not trying to throw this thread off, but the best thing to come out of this is waves for the minority we are part of in these circumstances. I hope to get out there again Friday after work in RI!
