The Tide Of March

Whats being called Saturn should be called Sandys pissed off daughter.  is currently pounding New Jersey Coast .. Local officials and emergency management has been taken by complete surprise . Flooding of BHW and Long beach island will be extensive .

Bay ave is under water . There is a Barge threatening to Take out the west side bridge leading to Long Beach island . Its owners not very educated as to secure before this storm . I watched it as it hit the causeway then ran out battery's ran home came back five minutes later the excavator on It had tumbled into the bay . 

60 plus winds and all i managed to make on to the bridge and film it then catching up with its Foreman From Acme pilings from Toms river . He stated they had just moved it here this week . I guess there no weather channels in Toms River . 

And to park it on the North east side of the Causeway and not on the Lee side well to have it out here anywhere is a complete hazard . Manahawkin police have a patrol car watching it in case it does break free it only 10 yards from the bridge now . 

Luckily the excavators is in the water now . The group was hired to repair damages to the Pump station in the bay at same location . the barge is less of a threat now but remains so If it gets under the bridge it could cause massive damages. 

From what Ive seen so far There will be extensive erosion on the Beach's and a whole new round of clean ups coming I saw already two full docks floating up our road . The Governor needs to declare second disaster . And fast . 

Ive watched whole roofs ripped off newly nailed down shingles from Sandy now its back to ground zero . 

Our newly repaired road has been eroded again and will need new fill this weekend and maybe someone will start listening to me that it needs rip rock . Barrier . This road protects the approaches to the Bridge . Something much more important than any community centers or other projects the Town has slated for Mitigation moneys . Debris remains all over the marshes and in the tall grass and will be coming up from the Bay . Who going clean this one up .? A Florida company or finally some local New Jerseys . I have watched every local news and Major not one has mentioned our areas that is in fact getting the worst of this not Monmouth not Pt Pleasant not Sea side heights or Atlantic city we are ground zero again . 

Who directs these crews it beyond me thou New 10 NBC did pick up my video tonight. There are gust up to 70 miles an hour as I write this in my shaking Captains cabin on the bay surrounded by water . Question Why was a Barge allowed to tie up to the causeway and why wasnt it moved . With this being the most important gateway to Long Beach Island this smaller bridge is weaker as well as in bad condition compared to the bigger span yet this Barge was left unchecked with a Noreasther coming down on us and not only that . There is a huge excavator about 100 yards on the Point in the sedge island that has been unreasonable left unattended for three weeks now and last I looked its being pounded by waves and water up to the top of its tracks .Does the Moscitio commission have that much money to just leave equipment in Harms way ??? 

Put it this way this whole area is on a runaway train . Staring with Fema Turning its back on us , Our Governer letting the Government bankrupt our tax bases and letting insurance company's get away with criminally contempt of what there responsibility's are and the complete removal of a entire generation and working class that build this great area . Governor Christie you should be held accountable for this shame on you .

You will need a new bridge project if if that barge breaks free and trust me its going to if it hasn't already . Some security we have . Some great planing and weather forecasting . this should be titled the Politics of looking the other way . 

Or The Tides of March and the Middle Class .Video included . Will post the morning light of debris and hopefully a still standing bridge .
