Mastic Beach Blue Claw Crab Festival

OMG! We have dealt with wind. We have dealt with rain. Yesterday we had to deal with high tide and a storm surge from Hurricane Bill! We had a grate in the road behind our booth. It was supposed to be for run off! Run Off! There was water coming out (up) from the grate. The water was about 6" below the grate while we were setting up. When we were finished it was 6" above. We were lucky. We only had to stand in ankle deep water to work and our customers were dry. Others had ankle deep water in thier entire booth!
