Flood damage in Long Island's Suffolk County prompts state of emergency
Briefly

We knew that there was a lot of bad weather in Connecticut, but it all traveled south and it hit all along the North Shore in Suffolk County.
This is an environmental and economic disaster. This Mill Pond, the last time this occurred was over 100 years ago, in 1910. Millions of gallons of water, turtles, fish, everything, is downstream.
Clearly, our call now is to clean up this mess, and rebuild this Mill Pond... this is going to take a lot of money and hopefully we have some aid.
As I look out and I look at all the cesspools that have flowed, and their mess flowing into the Sound, I think that's a very strong argument why Stony Brook needs sewers.
