News we’re reading
-
Long Island’s North Shore has signs of beach erosion. An expert says “the problem is irreversible.”
Smithtown’s shoreline is taking a hit, with rough surf damaging a pier and stripping sand from the Kings Park bluffs, leaving stairs destroyed and trails disappearing. Local residents and a Stony Brook erosion expert warn that this winter’s damage, driven by fragile bluffs and rising sea levels, may be largely irreversible and could worsen without action. -
Long Island Trump supporters divided over Iran strikes
Smithtown is highlighted as one of Long Island’s strongest pro-Trump strongholds, where many residents back the president’s strikes on Iran but worry about a long war. Interviews from Smithtown and nearby communities show Trump supporters split between trusting his “America First” judgment and fearing another open-ended Middle East conflict that could endanger local service members.
