Good luck to you Jacob. Let us know how you make out.

Thanks...about 5 ft above sea level here (and <2000ft from the Hudson River), though it's not seawater that floods us, it's the rainwater. However the storm water runoff goes into the Hudson, so there has got to be an interplay there.
This was the view from my front steps looking at my garage door during Irene. Water level did get a few inches higher than this. It was probably over 12 inches deep in the middle of our street.
