Third tide

Scenes from high noon, flooding into streets and homes; coastal homes damaged still more with this third tide, day 2 nor’easter storm Riley. Long Beach seawall holds back relentless surf

Thanks to Blue Shutters I have picture of damage to Good Harbor Footbridge at the midnight high tide.
Fear not I’m sure it will be ready for summer not the first time the ocean has taken it!

Good Harbor Beach Footbridge damaged.
Extensive damage to the railings at the Ocean House Inn, our Snowy Owl Hedwig’s current favorite perch. No sign of her the past few days, but Hedwig is so resourceful, we are hoping for the best.
GMG Jimmy found this iconic Gloucester scene while I was drooling over the new digital reader at Sawyer Free Library. Not having coffee, like I assumed! Well done Jimmy!

The Good Harbor Beach Footbridge is intact at 4pm, despite mid-day flooding.

Just another day for a pair of male and female Common Eiders

With Gloucester awash from a wicked storm nobody knows what may swim into town. If you come upon a creature like this please notify NOAA, for the unicornfish is quite rare. According to Fishes of the Gulf of Maine by Bigelow and Schroeder (1953) only two specimens have been found, both caught on the western edge of Georges in 1930 by the schooner OLD GLORY.
In case you missed Channel 7 report from Fisherman at the Wheel Stacy Boulevard. 19 foot waves according to buoys.
