Another Snow Day for Wantagh-Seaford

Residents dig out from about a foot of white stuff that blankets the area.

The Wantagh-Seaford area was blanketed with about a foot of snow Wednesday and early Thursday causing local schools to close today.

The National Weather Service estimates snowfall totals of 14 inches for the nearby communities of Levittown and Merrick and 11 inches for Massapequa. Exact snowfall totals for Wantagh and Seaford were not available as of mid Thursday afternoon.

New York State Education law does not permit Regents makeups, so the students scheduled to take a New York State Regents Exam at , and MacArthur High School will now have to take the exams in June.

$20 million of the $40 million will be spent on adding a pocket track, presumably east ofRead More Massapequa. Currently, trains are reversed east of the Wantagh interlocking, and while the engineer walks through the train, it blocks the track. This addition of a "pocket track" will probably also help Wantagh commuters some times, just as an emergency pull-over space on the LIE helps.

True, true, I'm sure there's a political payoff/payback here somewhere.
