Wow.... this just happened on Cape Cod
« on: August 19, 2017, 07:54:25 AM »
A friend just sent the 1st pic

Heavy rain last night caused the collapse of the cliff/dune edge

A car was parked there, but no one in car at the moment of collapse.

Thank God it is a rainy day or there would have been a LOT of cars and people there.... and below on the beach.

That beach and the bar are ALWAY busy..... Beach always packed under that part of the cliff.

Good fortune on the timing of this! Hopefully they won't discover someone was under that :'(

Well, you never know where and when the next good sand bar for surf is going to show up.
It could be really good straight out in front next year.  So there is that.
It takes a quiver to do that.

Love to see the look on the car owners face. Shhhhiiittt!  My car!  I mean nothing you could do but watch.
It's not overhead to me!
8'8" L-41 ST and a whole pile of boards I rarely use.

Dropping in!

That could have been a pretty ugly party wave for sure.  Good to hear, no injuries.

One car.

and it wasn't the only beach.... other beaches lost paved parking areas when the rain waters washed into the bay as well.

Sunny and warm today. Everyone is back on the beach! (cept the Comber beach.... closed indefinitely)
