The National Weather Service recorded record flooding along the Great South Bay during Hurricane Sandy in 2012, with surge of roughly 6 to 7 feet on the southwest Suffolk shore.
The August 2014 storm dropped a state-record 13.26 inches of rain on Islip, and basements in the surrounding area flooded. On canal and bayfront lots, lower levels and mechanical systems are the usual places water reaches first.

Shut off the water if possible, avoid electrical hazards, and photograph the damage before anything is moved.

A backup is sewage, not clean water, so crews contain the area, remove affected materials, and sanitize. Coverage for sewer or septic backup varies by policy, so ask your carrier.
