Summary edit

Description
English: Oblique aerial photography from Cedar Island, VA on May 21, 2009 (top) and December 4, 2009 (bottom), roughly two weeks after the storm. The yellow arrows point to the same location in each photograph. This location is characterized by extreme erosion, to the point where the small beach has disappeared and an overwash deposit has been eroded exposing, in places, an underlying marsh surface. This response suggests that the beach system may have been inundated during some part of the storm. At this time we do not know if the missing house was lost during this storm or removed prior. No debris is evident in the photo, another indication of inundation regime if, in fact, the house was lost during Nor’Ida.
