Sorry, slowpokes: Newsday reports, "The State Parks police closed access to the Jones Beach parking lots at 10:45 a.m., spokesman George Gorman said. The lots filled quickly this morning with heavy beach traffic, he said." Or, as one Twitter user puts it, "omfg its only 10:40 and jones beach is closed cuz the parking lots are full!!!! wow"

Gorman also said that the State Parks police are putting up roadblocks "at Merrick Road and Tobay Beach to stop incoming beach traffic." Drivers after the roadblock can park on the shoulder.

The popular Jones Beach Air Show, concludes today and it drew "massive crowds" yesterday.
