The remnants of Hurricane Noel caused strong winds, minor tidal flooding and beach erosion along the New Jersey coast during the day on November 3rd. Peak wind gusts averaged around 45 mph. Minor tidal flooding occurred with the afternoon high tide including in some of the back bays. Fortunately by the afternoon winds were already shifting to the northwest.
In Middlesex County, in Old Bridge a four foot high dune was cut at its base for one-quarter of a mile from the municipal building to the police station. In Monmouth County, in Sea Bright, snow fencing was damaged. Two foot vertical cuts occurred at the toe of the dune. The rest of the county reported vertical cuts of one foot or less. In Ocean County, most of the reported erosion occurred in Long Beach Township where vertical cuts reached between two and four feet. In the Holgate section of the township, a four foot vertical cut by a forty foot wide cut exposed concrete at the south end that led to the Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge. Elsewhere in the county, at Harvey Cedars, vertical cuts averaged three feet and sand was washed away from the retaining wall and exposed rocks on the beach at East Cumberland Avenue. Little if any erosion was reported in Atlantic County. In Cape May County, vertical cuts averaged from one to four feet. In Ocean City, the Delancy Street outfall pipe was in disrepair. In Strathmere, sand fencing was damaged. Off Sea View Avenue, a 10 foot vertical cliff was carved and a residential bulkhead was exposed. In Avalon, from 9th through 20th Streets, four foot vertical cuts to the top of the bulkhead caused rock revetment and outfall to be exposed.
The high tide in Cape May (Cape May County) reached 6.79 feet above mean lower low water. Minor tidal flooding starts at 6.70 feet above mean lower low water. Peak wind gusts included 47 mph at Barnegat Inlet (Ocean County) and 45 mph in Atlantic City (Atlantic County).
Noel and what became its remnants moved north from well east of the Florida Coast on the morning of the 2nd to about 250 miles east of the Delmarva Peninsula on the morning of the 3rd and made landfall in Nova Scotia overnight on the 3rd.
