Noreaster Hits Jersey Shore

With an "upper-level trough on top, a surface high pressure system on the bottom, and the remnants of Ida" in between, the weather was extremely blustery and rainy yesterday and is expected to continue today. 1010WINS reports that some southern NJ towns have declared state of emergency and "The Coast Guard halted the search for three missing New Jersey fishermen whose boat sank in rough seas Wednesday night." One surfer surveying the Jersey shore told WCBS 2, "As you can see behind me the ocean is pretty much one big rip current right now, just sucking out to sea. So anybody caught going out there right now is not gonna be too safe so I'd avoid all water contact."
