    Please explain "thats not true". The cam at 48th sure gives the impression that the break is messed up. Which was probably the best in town.

    unless they start something serious (IRI, for example) the bars will replenish themselves.

    The sand will do its thing like is has for thousands of years, Its already moving around now new spots will pop up and sandbars will be created. Its not the end of the world just a speed bump.

    The replenishment will last maybe the next few storms. Depending on the size of the storms, the sandbars will be back sometime soon. New spots could be created. The pialings at 48th street appeared to be at my waist when the replenishment was done. Just after today, the pialings now look to be chest or even head high on me. Just give it time.
