Lindenhurst Streets Inundated With Water By Coastal Flooding

LINDENHURST, NY - Water from coastal flooding impacted multiple roads south of Montauk Highway as a nor’easter brought wind and rain to the area late Friday afternoon.

The flooding mainly occurred near canals and along the Great South Bay.
