Yow... Right now the surf, 4-7 foot, is rolling up the end of my street. For grins and giggles I went over to Conimicut Point where I dodged seaweed on the road to the point - it was a lot deeper than it looked - and saw the bay litterally lapping the foundation of a few houses. On the point, the waves are crashing on the grass at the the end of the parking lot, and the residual saltwater is in the parking lot. On the way back I figured it would be smarter to go the back way out. That water was even deeper on the northside as the storm surge is just filling it up. I saw one 4x4 truck with water almost over the headlights (and therefore the stock air intake) so I back tracked and went around again. Some brilliant fellow was contemplating taking his Lexus though there... On the way back I drove by a Swan swimming in the road...

When I was down in Gansett, I also stopped by the short wall. Waves were breaking over Salty Brine beach into the parking lot. Going to be some serious damage from this one.
Man this one is going to move some fish South fast. Hopefully people who have thier boats in fare well.

Yeah there was a boat in the rocks in Jamestown already....
Fortunetly this is a fast mover, BUT the high surge (3ft) and the onshore SE winds will certainly do some damage! |

Took a ride down to Falmouth and thru the Heights. The road's under water near the old Maravista. We made it thru and went over to Green Pond for stuffed quahogs. The road was closed on the way back.
