Little round.. Do NOT believe everything you here...
I just heard from a Chatham Campowner who was out there yesterday, and this AM, and his eyewitness account was very different, that what you have heard.. it is actually pushing sand in to the void today. He said at the worst it was 5' deep on the front side, and possibly 3 ' deep on the bayside at low tide.. litterally tons of sand have shifted in the last 24-48 hours, and today at low tide it was a trickle on the bayside maybe 6 feet wide and 6 inches deep.
He feels.. with his 60 plus years experience, that with continued SW winds, that stretch will be driveable withing 3-4 weeks.. I trust his knowledge, and will Pray for mild weather, with SW winds....he said in looks very similar to when it broke thru there, in the same place, and then healed in the sixtys...
the beach is still closed to all vehicles (except campowners), the middle trail is flooded very deep, and the front beach was cut back 10-15 feet.. almost the entire length.. As we who know it.. know.. a few weeks of SW, can cure a lot....the town will be pumping the water out of the middle trail, over the next week or so.
