Keep in mind that New York State will reinstitute its 4% sales tax on clothing sales of $110 or less effective October 1, 2010, so get that back to school shopping before then!
Another thing to keep in mind is that on the first three days of school (September 8th, 9th and 10th), our block will experience serious morning tidal street flooding with tide heights ranging from 7.0' to 7.3'. Remember, with these tide heights, water will be on the block well in advance of the actual time of high tide!
Wednesday September 8, 2010
8:35 a.m. (7.0 feet)
Thursday September 9, 2010
9:24 am (7.2 feet)
Friday September 10, 2010
10:13 am (7.3 feet)
There is nothing worse than having your child (children) fed, dressed and ready to go and when you open your front door to get them on their way you are greeted with schools of killies swimming on your sidewalk!
Believe me, I know...been there and done that!
Starting with the first week in September, we will begin posting a "Tidal Street Flooding - School Inconvenience Advisory" on the home page of this site listing those school days which may be incovenienced by street flooding. Additionally, email alerts will be forwarded to all subscribers.
