moon tide.
Full moon + high tide corresponding to when the storm was at peak...


I live 4 miles from the Atlantic Ocean, there is a canal across the street from me, and a lake about 100 yards from my front door...

I'm surprised I didn't flood.... sometimes just a full moon+high tide will get enough water in the basement to trigger the pump.... the confluence of a Nor'Easter usually means I have a wet basement for a few days..

In any event looks like 24 inches + on western Lawn Guyland...

I'm getting out of here in a few short years...
