High Risk of Rip Currents Into Tonight

The National Weather Service has issued a warning for a high risk of rip currents until 11 tonight. Beaches in most towns have been unguarded since Sept. 4, when the beach season ended. But the lack of guards has not stopped people from going into the water, despite bungalow-high swells from Hurricane Jose, hundreds of miles out in the Atlantic. The surf is expected to remain rough until the storm passes the Jersey seaboard on Tuesday. Pictured: High surf off Ocean Grove early on the morning of Sunday, Sept. 17.
