Fire Island Thoughts III: Nor' Easter Flood

Okay, you Fire Island boys. If you want to see something really scary, get a load of this photo.

Yep, the water from the Nor' Easter that inundated the East Coast literally flooded the entire downtown Fire Island Pines harbor area. Now, as I see it, two feet below the water level near those pylons is the walkway, and what is usually below the walkway is a five foot drop to what is usually the water level, so we're talking about a seven to eight foot surge! Arrrrrr, laddies, get out your buckets and bail!
