We'll await the official readings but at Sandy Hook... I think the max came in near 7.8 MLLW or on the cusp of minor-moderate CF threshold... statistically. 

From what I can see from the hydrological stations in and around new york harbor, this afternoon's high tide has crested slightly below yesterday's predictions. That's a good thing for people on the immediate shoreline, but there's still widespread minor to isolated moderate coastal flooding ongoing.

I'm on the Sandy hook Bay/Shrewsbury River. Tide was definitely higher earlier this morning then this afternoon tide.

Major coastal flooding in southern Queens and along the south shore of Long Island

wow massive flooding near Jamaica Bay both in southern Queens and SW Nassau.

I have to wonder how much of this is because of climate change induced sea level rise?  This storm, while strong, didn't seem to be strong enough to cause such a surge! Major flooding in Lindenhurst too.

 

 

Duration under gradient.   Thankfully, neap tides.  Its bad, but ive been here for many decades, my entire life.   I still havd visual tide guages from 40 years ago.  Id love to blame my areas back bay flooding on sea level rise, but thats not the case.   There have been tremendous man-made changes to the inlet and surrounding areas that are almost certainly responsible.   

 

To each their own.

I'm pretty much satisfied with outcomes of this storm... p1 if questions...includes WPC 5 day total. CoCoRaHs tomorrow sometime around 915-930. Still some power outages.  Officially at least spotty 3 so far Stony Brook LI, and a fair mounts of 3+ Ocean and Monmouth counties in NJ with 3.6+ at Berkeley Heights.

Probably, the sea level change isn't significant yet.

I just remember back in the 1990s when we had these huge noreasters, it usually required much stronger winds and either a new or full moon.
