My DD Kelly took these pictures of the Hudson River during Tropical Storm at Rhinecliff, NY at 1pm Sunday, Aug 29. The cement near where she's standing is USUALLY about 4-5 feet ABOVE the river, depending on the tide.
The second picture shows waves breaking on the shore - almost like waves breaking on a beach.
The third picture shows the Kingston Lighthouse on the other side of the river. It sticks out into the river - behind it there is a sheltered harbor that goes quite a way inland. The last couple of days before the storm, Kelly saw a lot of small boats heading in there. It is too shallow for large boats. Larger boats were heading farther north upriver.
