Hurricane Erin is expected to run parallel to the Eastern Seaboard, posing threats of life-threatening surf and dangerous rip currents to areas like New Jersey, New York and Long Island throughout the week. Forecasters are eyeing two disturbances that could follow in Erin’s wake.

The National Hurricane Center warned that Hurricane Erin is becoming ‘better organized’ as it moves northward through the Atlantic, triggering dangerous rip currents.

Erin, a sprawling Category 2 hurricane, is not forecast to make landfall but will impact much of the East Coast with dangerous coastal conditions as it tracks north, nearly paralleling the coast. Bermuda will face similar conditions to the storm's east.
