VIDEO: Strong Winds, Rough Waves Along Lacey's Bayside Areas

Waves have begun to pour onto Forked River Beach streets

It's high tide in Lacey as strong gusts of wind pound through the area and waves strike bulkheads and surfaces.

The Barnegat Bay is beginning to join with side streets in the Hawaii section of the Forked River Beach.

The bay is also approaching homes along Bayside Beach Club's portion of the Forked River Beach while on the public side, waves bang against the rocks placed along the shoreline by the township to temporarily restore the beach to pre-Sandy conditions.
