Getting hammered on Kent Island. 72 mph gust waves breaking into the yard. Waves topping pilings with lifts.

Lost three trees at my house today. My parents and sister were both evacuated and came here...one of those trees crushed both of their cars.

OK,
It's getting dark and I have power on & off.
I just got in from shooting but my closest call was when I pulled up in front of my house.
I decided to shoot my house before any damage was to occur. I backed up my street to get shots from each angle. I was in front for about 30 seconds then backed around the corner. Just as I made the corner my neighbor's tree came down across the street right where I was a few seconds ago...

If that wasn't close enough, My pool cover broke free. I ended up going in the pool to retrieve the weights that got pulled in. with the cover. Once done with that, the neighbor behind me tree came down. Fortunately it went in the other direction.

That's it !!! I am in for the night...... I hope !

Tim, hope you stay safe and dry, one to many close calls already. Praying for you and everyone else.

Tim,

Where do you live? Brick Twp. (I read Brick, NJ from your website)? Did the water come over the boardwalk at Pt. Pleasant (I assume it did). I would also assume Route 70 near Lighning Jack's is flooded?
