| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | Slow moving tropical cyclone Hermine caused several days of 8 to 12 feet of surf breaking on Atlantic ocean shorelines. The surf on top of storm tide September 3rd through the 6th caused significant beach erosion on Long Island ocean beaches. |
| Event narrativeevent_narrative | Robert Moses State Park sustained substantial erosion mostly beginning September 3rd Saturday night and continuing until Monday night. The worst erosion came Sunday night into Monday on the fifth of September. During that time, beach flooding, in some cases up to the dune lines, was experienced throughout the length of the ocean front. Specifically, significant beach erosion occurred at Robert Moses State Park on the west side from the Water Tower towards Field 2. An initial rough estimate of 60-90 feet of shoreline was lost. ||Additionally, Gilgo Beach within the Town of Babylon jurisdiction, suffered substantial beach erosion. There was a moderate loss of sand along Gilgo Beach with one area west of the Gilgo underpass experiencing a 6 foot scarp along 200 feet of beach, leaving little beach. |
