Meteorologists are closely tracking the projected path and forecast of Hurricane Erin, which is the first hurricane to develop over the Atlantic this year.

Forecasters say the monster storm will turn away from the eastern U.S. and won’t make landfall. But they predict it will churn up dangerous rip currents.

While the storm is not expected to directly hit the Ocean State, it is bringing dangerous conditions to the coastline in Rhode Island as well as parts of Massachusetts. In Massachusetts, two beaches in Scituate, Minot Beach and Peggotty Beach, were closed due to how rough the water is.
