How to Track Hurricane Erin: See Which States Are Currently at Risk

Hurricane Erin is causing 7 to 12-foot waves, moderate to major coastal flooding, and life-threatening rip currents, prompting beach closures and flood warnings from officials.

  • The city of Wildwood and neighboring Jersey Shore towns including Atlantic City, Margate, and Longport warn of rough surf and life-threatening rip currents worsening on Aug. 21, 2025.
  • Hurricane Erin offshore is driving the hazardous conditions, with its circulation fueling dangerous surf and rip currents along the Jersey Shore while moving north near 13 mph.
  • The National Weather Service has warnings including a high rip current risk and high surf advisory, with breaking waves expected to reach 7 to 11 feet on Aug. 21.
  • Beachgoers face life-threatening rip currents that have already led to rescues, while conditions may begin to improve late Thursday night but moderate coastal flooding remains possible Thursday evening.
  • The NHC says Erin may grow stronger and larger, while local officials warn restrictions will likely last all week amid a storm surge threat from the Jersey Shore to central South Carolina.
