ForestHillWx Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 2 minutes ago, NEG NAO said: like those roads never flooded before - maybe they should spend some of our tax $$ upgrading whats causing the drainage issues............ No disagreement about upgrades/debris clean up, but where I was the rate was considerable. That part of Monmouth County is also rather low lying, not more than 20 miles from the Atlantic as the crow flies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been lightly drizzingly here most of the day on the UWS with some moderate pockets sprinkled in. Looks like we are at .91 inches for the event as of 11 AM at CPK.

bluewave Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 https://newjersey.news12.com/2026/07/06/roof-collapses-at-bjs-wholesale-club-in-ocean-township/128UzlO4BAdoGypMDmXBA6 Multiple crews are responding to a roof collapse at a BJ’s Wholesale Club in Ocean Township. The Monmouth County Sheriff’s Office said first responders are on scene at the store on Route 35 in the Oakhurst section of Ocean Township. Officials are asking people to stay clear of the area so emergency crews can respond safely. The collapse happened around 11:30 a.m. Multiple mutual aid crews from surrounding towns were also called to the scene. Law enforcement officials told News 12 that there were no injuries reported. Police said all 27 staff members who were in the building at the time are accounted for and safe. All of the customers who were in BJ's at the time of the collapse are also safe, police said. According to Ocean Township Police Chief Michael Sorrentino and Monmouth County Sheriff Shaun Golden, approximately 20% of the rear of the building has collapsed. Officials believe the damage was caused by the weight of the water from the heavy rain that fell. Authorities are also urging drivers to avoid Route 35 because of severe flooding in the area. This remains a developing story. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongBeachSurfFreak Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 Over 2” in sw Nassua now. Rates have been consistently below what’s needed for real flash flooding. So it’s mainly a much needed good soaking . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South shore has a long way to go There’s some serious flooding in the Babylon, West Islip, and Bay Shore area. I’m in Brightwaters, where there are several underground streams. Basement flooding is going to be a major issue for the area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
