Weirs Beach Boardwalk Washed away!

Wow.

The Lakeside Ave. is OK until you reach the granite curb where the sidewalk runs between the street and the boardwalk, and then the hole starts. I'd guess 50 yards or so of the banking is gone under the boardwalk and rr tracks, taking the curb, sidewalk, fence and all ground and bushes under the tracks and boardwalk including what looks to be part of the town docks and steps. The tracks and boardwalk are intack, suspended in mid air over the hole. It looks like a sewage line is broke, and the Mount was unable to dock and I think is on its way to Meredith for tonight. Couldn't take any pics (to dark) but I'm sure someone will get some tomorrow.

Its like a Pink Floyd video.....
