long beach island. police tweeted out this video as the beach patrol assessed damage this morning, toms river lost 50 to 60% of its dunes. also hit hard, once rolling dunes are now 15-foot drops. our cameras caught significant damage in bethany beach, where a number of streets are still under water and the access to the beaches is now limited. officials tell us once the water levels go down, crews will be able to assess the damage and fix problems. so is the shore out of the woods for more flooding? here's chief meteorologist glenn "hurricane" schwartz with the answers for us. glenn? >> we're just about seeing the last of it. minor flooding at the time of high tide today and a sign of brighter things to come. we're looking from cape may, lafayette, looking towards the southwest and not out to the east. cape may is the only beach that faces the southwest, as you can see here on the map. there we are. and the wind speeds over the last few hours, coming down a little bit. gusting up near 30 miles an hour a

and we're near 60 at the beaches, as well, and those beaches need to see the winds shift. hasn't quite happened yet. it's kind of parallel to the jersey shore, but the delaware beaches still getting hit with the northeast wind. the ocean temperature 65 degrees. we still have the coastal flood advisory until 7:00 for southern portions of delaware and extreme south new jersey, generally in the back bays. we've already seen the last of the high, high tide. still some clouds around near the beaches, but nothing compared to what's going on to the south and to the east. there's joaquin out in the middle of the atlantic and there's that gigantic upper air storm that helped creepua eed c disaster in south carolina over the weekend and it continues. and the showers continue. it's nothing like the rain that fell over the weekend, but don't really get a chance to dry out when it's still raining. we have temperatures tonight going down through the 50s and into the 40s. and that's going to be kind of cool for this time of the year, but with the sunshine tomorrow we start off bright a

looking down the beach to the cliff we're looking at 6 feet of erosion on the beach. low tide past, another high tide is expected at 2:30. very windy and gusty, winds at 30 to 40 miles per hour expected today. if you look down here we're standing at the edge of the beach ramp that drops off. let's take a look at some flooding that we saw in other shore towns overnight. a number of roads were closed during high tide in pleasantville including black horse. we found police blocking traffic there at franklin boulevard. officials are warning do not drive through standing water, it cannot only damage your vehicle, but it's extremely dangerous. roads were flooded in west atlantic city and ventnor overnight. the back bay areas are prone to flooding because the water has not had a chance to drain from previous high tides. coastal communities should be prepared for another round of flooding that's in in effect until 6:00 p.m. the beaches were replenished in 2013 after super-storm sandy. no word on how much damage was caused or what it will take to fix the beaches. i talked to t
