Lindenhurst

It's true.

We live in the village of Lindenhurst.

Sorry to dox ourselves to everyone.

Come find us.

The stairs to the surf at Smith Point Park were destroyed, part of the Jones Beach Fishing Pier was knocked down, and the Jones Beach Theater took significant damage with water reaching the orchestra seats.

In Lindenhurst, floodwater surrounded homes for three days.

Measured coastal inundation in New York City topped 2.6 feet.

Wildfire posture.

You know, I'm fine.

My best friend was from Lindenhurst, Long Island, New York.

But he knew he'd moved to Virginia, and some things in Virginia were a little shocking to him or surprising to him.

There were cultural differences.

Say that fast three times.

They say the village of Lindenhurst really got slammed by the storm and some along the coast bracing for another high tide cycle before it's over.

Sophia Hall went back over there to give us an update.

It was very high.

You don't get any sleep because you just keep seeing it coming.

And at low tide, it never went down.

This Lindenhurst resident said she did not like being in her house for days, worried about the flooded streets.

It was one of the worst I've seen since living here for 10 years.

But the fact is, it just hung around all weekend and even into today.

uh it started out developing off of the carolinas on friday it was right about here saturday then bent toward the coast spent much of sunday in new jersey and now exiting off to the north and east and that just meant multiple high tide cycles with all the flooding one to three feet of inundation whether it was the jersey shore or right up the hudson or newark bay into the hackensack river both shores of long island long island sound we all got into that flooding Moderate was pretty widespread and even some major flooding places like Freeport and into Lindenhurst.

And look at these rainfalls.

I mean, nearly nine inches in Neptune.
