Marcus Solis reports from Sea Bright, NJ with the latest there. That is much less of a concern along the New Jersey coast, where high tide means that many areas, including Sea Bright are already under water. There are no evacuations yet, most residents are staying put hoping that the water will not rise much further. The boardwalk in Asbury Park looks like a ghost town, though the beach remains an attraction. Huge 10 to 15 foot waves have been crashing along the Jersey Shore all day.
Experts say the relentless pounding is causing beach erosion.
Most of the flow comes down from the North, and we will replenish our beach by the Summer time, but you still lose a lot. Away from the beach, there was concern on Beach Street, in Sea Bright, where the Shrewsbury River did flood slightly this morning. Some residents fear the worst. You know, the town braced for this two days ago, cops came to every house. I'm nervous that things are going to float away.
