Not only along the Atlantic Oceanside of seabright but also what could behind me the Shrewsbury River will be underwater. Any time we get this kind of wind and tide we get a little bit of flooding. Reporter seabright lies on a spit of land between the occasionally angry Atlantic Ocean and a flood prone Shrewsbury River. It proved it doesnt take much to produce flooding all along the jersey shore especially with the extra pull of a new moon. Got morning. Were definitely watching the high tide and were expecting water will come in the streets during that cycle. Hopefully it wont be too bad and cause any property damage. One thing residents are thankful for compared to sandy, this was nothing. Reporter in the years following the superstorm, seabright has become more prepared than ever. That from property damage. Weve also done some things with our infrastructure like raising electrical panels boulevard the everything we can to try to mitigate future risk here. With the combination of an onside flow, the new moon, and the increased onshore flow, National Weather service now going for moderate and in some cases pockets of major coastal flooding along the jersey shore which could even cause structural damage so hopefully people are prepared here in seabright.
