we are back. wind, beach erosion and

factor. liz joins us live from belmont new jersey down the shore. good morning, liz liz: good morning. the snow is on the bottom of the list for the mayor and residents. the big concern is the coastal flooding and the potential storm surge that could have devastating effects. this is what is happening. the massive sand dunes were built over the past 24 hours. we saw bold overs here constructing the dunes to protect the area in case the water comes up this high. this is stretching a mile down the beach now and it will be the first line of defense if there is a strong storm surge. the mayor says the dunes will get a lot of work this

we know this area was hit hard by sandy and i want to show you the boardwalk. it's all brand-new. storm surge will come up this high because the area has already seen a ton of damage. people know what to do. they already have the to go bags packed and so far the mayor has said areas like this don't have to evacuate but that could change as we see the storm progress. ben and juliet, back over to you. >> there is so much to talk about here. coastal flooding is what liz was talking about . mike: there will be a lot of problems out there. let's start with the coastal flooding going on saturday and sunday with

flooding. this is a given. it's in a situation like this and we have the phone coming in tomorrow adding into the gravitational pull and it's 2 and a half 3 and a half feet above normal. it's a pretty significant above normal departure. the persistent wind piles up the water and keep in mind, you have wave heights of eight 12 feet . that does a lot of damage. >> basically, it's western long island in the back bays of long island and all along the jersey shore. now, as far as the winds go, it's out in islip in its coming in from the northwest. it's around five 14 miles per hour. it doesn't look that bad. the storm is still down over the south eastern state. severe weather there in

thunderstorms. here is where it's getting nasty. it's heading into virginia and that's where it will mix with the cold air that's in place. right now we have a mainly clear sky but that will change. the cloud cover will start to shift in here this afternoon and the snow gets going later on tonight. really it's more like tomorrow morning around sunrise. here is the future cash taking until 7:00 p.m.. it starts off with some snow in south jersey at that time but it's not here in the tri-state until we get to sunrise. six or 7:00 , the snow started coming in and the heavier snow bands are coming in the dryer state . they want to keep it as all snow but it does get out of here earlier and it doesn't look like it's so bad on sunday. saturday will be the messier one coming up . be prepared for it .

possible with the visibility cut down to a quarter mile or less. 33 is high today and 31 tomorrow. things will be fine then but we have to go to the next 36 hours. that's my fault. let's talk about the bridge. things are moving fine along sussex county. let's go to the cameras. if you are taking the drive, you are fine.
