Last night’s fourth super high tide in two days again brought an incredible surge of seawater. Gloucester’s DPW Marco Numerosi was working last night at 2am and reports it was the worst of all. DPW crews and GDP Officers were on the job bright and early this Sunday morning, cleaning the roads of hurled rocks, popples, seaweed, and seagrass.

Eastern Point Road, by Bemo Street, still littered with debris at 8am, is closed, and virtually impassable. One driver tried, and then quickly changed his mind.
This morning photographing and filming at 6:30 you would not believe it was dead low tide. There is so much water and I am afraid the next tide will bring with it another round of destruction. The waves are towering; a large ship, the Oldendorff appeared to head straight out and then steered closer to shore. Stay safe and warm friends.
Thanks for sharing some great photos

Thank you for sharing these photos as I still have family up in Gloucester and have been very worried about how they are doing through it all. Again thank you so much.

We drove Eastern Point Blvd all weekend including this morning. Most of the rocks and debris were shoveled away last night around 7:30 pm. The road is fine and passable.

Very powerful message from Mother Nature! And there are so many following this area who have friends and family or have left the footprints in the sand and breath upon land…(Vecinos=Neighbors)! Dave & Kim
