That will make my husband feel a little better.
Can't remember snow like this since I was a kid on L.I. The drift outside our back door will probably melt by June.
Bayville has a flood warning. The snow is pretty bad right now IMHO.
I just called my son who in the Perfect Storm had 2 feet of water in the house. No signs of water at his house. as of 9:55 AM.
Still we got a few mre hours of pounding.

Widespread coastal flooding is expected along eastern Massachusetts shore roads until at least noon. Due to snow and ice chunks blocking drains...some shore roads may remain flooded well into the afternoon. Reports of coastal flooding have been received from Marshfield and Hull. As of 9 am...Atlantic Avenue in Hull was reported to be under 3 to 4 feet of water...and water was reported to be 2 feet deep at some spots in the Brant Rock section of Marshfield.
In addition to flooding of roadways...waves of 25 to 35 feet just offshore will bring dangerously large breakers to the shoreline...and likely result in damage to some vulnerable structures. High tide occurs around 10 am along most of east coastal Massachusetts...except around 11 am on Nantucket.
Communities expected to experience coastal flooding include Revere... Winthrop...Boston...Quincy...Hull...Scituate...Marshfield... Duxbury...Plymouth...Chatham and Nantucket. Heavy snow and wind gusts approaching hurricane force will cause blizzard conditions at times through this morning along the coast.
