The storm has come and gone, with very little damage to the area. We did have unusually high tide and some area flooding, an were told that this was the same water level as Hurricane Sandy** (October 29, 2012).

** Sandy – While it was a Category 2 storm off the coast of the Northeastern United States, the storm became the largest Atlantic hurricane on record (as measured by diameter, with winds spanning 1,100 miles (1,800 km)). Estimates as of 2015 assessed damage to have been about $75 billion (2012 USD), a total surpassed only by Hurricane Katrina.[5] At least 233 people were killed along the path of the storm in eight countries.

We were never in danger of water in the house or the garage and the main reason we stayed at the Cottage @ Creek View was to observe the water levels.
