(VIDEO) Latest Storm Causes Lake Takanassee To Overflow Its Banks
Lake waters now emptying into ocean
The latest rain storm to hit Long Branch has caused Lake Takanassee to overflow its banks and carve a new path to the ocean.
The lake is now spilling onto the beach from two paths. One actually carved a path around the pipe that was originally the only way the lake water reached the ocean. The second path uncovered a wood retaining wall and is flowing over it and down to the beach.
The two paths then merge and flow over the broken sea wall that was uncovered by Hurricane Sandy before heading out into the ocean.
