Sea Isle City

As we look at the battleship New Jersey, you can see the sunshine there just behind it.

And we also have that sunshine kind of peeking through the clouds here as we look live on Sky 6 down in Sea Isle.

It's 62 degrees right now.

Winds are light out of the east at about 8 miles per hour.

Here, Townsend's Inlet Bridge is closed.

That's some tidal flooding going on between Seattle and Avalon this morning.

Maybe stay inland on the parkway instead.

On this Thursday

We're seeing some pretty sizeable waves here.

You can also see where the dune is eaten away here on the southern end of Sea Isle City.

Now, most of this damage is from the last nor'easter that we saw a few weeks ago.

In Sea Isle City, they just had a beach replenishment project, and city officials say they could possibly move sand around the island in the spring to get ready for the summer tourist season if that's needed.

But communities are looking at ways to protect themselves as these storms are likely to keep coming.

As a nor'easter passes by the Jersey Shore, we found folks enjoying the sun in Sea Isle City and checking out the beaches.

We were down maybe, uh, a month ago, and we had plenty of beach.

The dunes sloped nicely into the, into the water and, and it's totally different today after a couple of storms.

Alright, time now for a check of the accurate the forecast.

Let's step live outside or at the shore.com camera looking at Seattle City this afternoon.

That looks like a picture perfect day right there.

It sure is and 70 degrees here at the station right now.

On Friday, the Sherrill administration announced a request for emergency federal assistance after the September nor'easter swept through the Jersey Shore causing widespread tidal flooding and beach erosion.

The specific ask is for the Army Corps of Engineers to restore beaches and dunes in seven areas.

In the days after the storm, local, state, and federal officials tore damage in places like Atlantic City, LBI, and Seattle City.

In North Wildwood, the mayor tells Action News without an emergency beach fill, what's left of the dunes may be breached if more storms hit this fall and winter.

Into

the belly of the beast and like, you know, see Isle City and, you know, getting asked the question, head or gut, and crying my way out of it.

Talk about going the distance.

Uh, as a matter of fact, I remember the real big concern where I said we have to go to a neurologist, not just the internist, was when he could no longer interpret the GPS.

I mean, we ride from Doylestown to the s- to Sea Isle City, gosh, 10, 15 times a summer.

He could no longer interpret the GPS, and so that's when I scheduled an appointment with a neurologi- a general neurologist.

Right.

Not surviving next year or not fixing everything or not pretending it isn't happening, but the now.

What does surviving the now mean to you personally?

You know, I thought of it this w- past weekend because we were down the shore in Sea Isle City, and this past three months, this disease has physically taken over my husband.

Uh, his lack of mobility has really impacted us to the point where I thought over Labor Day weekend, I'm not sure that I see Anthony being able to climb these steps anymore.
