As Hurricane Lee makes its way north, forecasters are watching for impacts on the Jersey Shore this week.
Cape May County Emergency Management officials expect rip currents, beach erosion and possible minor flooding.
"This is hurricane season right now, and especially this week in particular, the waves are going to be increasing in size and swell throughout the day, every day," said lifeguard Julia Cullen. While many beachgoers have been enjoying some postseason sun, the lifeguards who are still on duty are working hard to make sure people are safe.
