Islip Terrace (11752), in the western part of Suffolk County, borders or sits near Bohemia, Central Islip and Islandia. Record rainfall on August 13, 2014 flooded roads and basements across southwest Suffolk, with 13.26 inches measured at MacArthur Airport in Islip.
When Isaias cut power to more than 420,000 customers in 2020, basements that depend on sump pumps lost their protection. Because Islip Terrace filled in with suburban housing over many years, supply lines and water heaters of very different ages sit side by side from one block to the next. Many basements in western Suffolk rely on a sump pump, and a pump that fails during a storm or power outage is a common trigger for a flooded basement.
