Ducks swimming in front of Windwalker R E

Rising waters in front of Windwalker Real Estate

The 2010 New Year rang in with a challenging, slow moving Nor’easter combined with an astronomically high tide that impacted Nantucket Town along the waterfront.  The Easy Street basin in front of Windwalker Real Estate on Oak Street never actually came over the bank but the high tide came up through the storm drains and flooded parts of Brant Point, the Dreamland lot, Easy Street, Oak Street, and Broad Street along the “Strip”. These were the highest flood waters we have seen in a long time. The noon tides were dramatic but fortunately the wind came around to the west during the evening and averted even higher flood waters forecasted for the midnight tide.

Maybe a Mid-Island rental would be best this time of year!  Use our Rental Search Tool with an integrated map to search for a Nantucket rental in some of the dryer areas!
