20 Arrested in 'Largest' Heroin Bust on LI's East End


NEW YORK (1010 WINS) -- Authorities say there will be less heroin in the Hamptons and other towns on the east end of Long Island this summer.


Mona Rivera reports

Suffolk County District Attorney Thomas Spota says three drug distribution rings have been shut down in "the largest heroin bust ever made on the East End."

Authorities arrested 20 suspected drug traffickers and seized more than 4,000 bags of heroin along with $173,000 in cash.

The alleged drug traffickers delivered an average of 2,500 bags of heroin per week to the East End, an estimated $1.8 to $2-million worth per year, Spota says.

A special task force is in place to keep heroin out of the Hamptons and other spots "especially this summer, Spota says. "Because this is poison."

You do realize that the Beaches on the bayside of Cape Cod get well into the 70s for water temperature?

I really don't care for water temps over 80. It no longer is refreshing at such high temps

Crosby Beach is our spot on the Cape. Named one of our dogs after the beach. Bayside beaches on the Cape after Labor Day are the best. Great water temps and the crowds dwindle as the month rolls on.

I'm looking forward to the warmer water temps of Buzzards Bay after a decade in Portsmouth, NH. It's a much longer season.

Long Island
Nassau County (home Locust Valley, office
North Shore (north of LIE, North of 25a) on LI Sound looking over to Stamford/office Oyster Bay

this area is always ranked in the top 100 zip codes in the country (wealth)
this area is not typical LI, there are horse farms, windy country roads, farm stands, majestic homes, country clubs, i drive friends around from other areas and they cannont believe they are on LI...

I'm from CT (Glastonbury) and have a house on the Cape, I'm a New Englander just happening to live and work (own biz) here....its expensive, but anything i could possibly want is no more than 20min away, NYC is 35min, up here there is no traffic, people wave hello, its why they call it "The Gold Coast" I was next to Billy Joel yesterday in town at a traffic light, the who's who of industry, news, politics live here for a reason.....i surf and do not take the beaches for granted.

water on LI goes from 33 in winter to 70's in summer, OCEAN

Cape Ocean (Coast Guard/Eastham) winter 33 to mid 50's at best mid summer...lived there, surf there.

There are a few days when the ocean temps off Long Island climb into the mid sixties, for the other 350 days we have wetsuits. I do agree w/ the over 80 statement, but don't understand how/why some people could not like the beach...?

 

[SKIQUATTRO]

twin....i surf in trunks with water temps in the 70 from mid to end july thur early sept....maybe in the morning a shorty is needed for the cool air/wind, but the water is in the 70's for quite some time...this is my 20th season surfing here....

Let me guess, preceded by a Public Service Announcement for the retun of the 'Chosen One'???:lol:

You sure he's the "Chosen One"? Or did everybody else just take a step back when he wasn't looking? Of course, Chosen for what is the real question? Experimental meds maybe?

mid 50s really?

That's surprising. Hampton up by me gets into mid 60s; even topping 70 a few days. Even up around Portland, Higgins got up to the low to mid 60s by August the three summers I was up.

I know that Nauset / Coast Guard is cold, but I would figure it would at least get into the mid 60s, maybe approach 70 in the heat of summer.

But the bay side has no waves. Its kind of hard to surf in flat water. Were I go Assateague Island In Virginia is usully between 70-75 degrees.

I just poked around the NOAA weather data. It is consistent with your mid-60's highs in the heat of the summer. I imagine those are the calm days when a surfer wouldn't be in the water. The July lows are in the 50's and probably align with the big surf days. I can see how a surfer would have a different take on water temps compared to a beach person.

The Gowanus gets nice and warm in the summer time. Prime breeding grounds for the Coney Island Whitefish.

You realize, of course, that Katz's is on Houston in Manhattan, right? So, that's not Brooklyn, there.

Not to say that parts of Brooklyn (especially between East NY Ave and Remsen, on the Bed-Stuy border) aren't really crappy, but your example is not Brooklyn.

A very nice cabbie made sure that I knew Katz's was on HOWSTON St. ; - )
