We have a myriad of alerts out ahead of Hurricane Erin.

The storm is currently churning to the east of South Carolina. It will continue to track north and east of New York.

We are already seeing impacts on city beaches. The sound has a small craft advisory and waves between 2-4 feet for Thursday.

Atlantic-facing beaches will continue to see dangerous rip currents and breaking waves between 4-13 feet. This is dangerous and potentially life-threatening, even for the strongest of swimmers.

New York City is also under a coastal flood advisory from a combination of tidal impacts from the moon and the passage of Erin offshore.

We are also seeing showers and the potential for a thunderstorm for the rest of Wednesday. The chance of some areas of moderate to heavy rainfall that could lead to isolated flash flooding.

Be mindful of potentially slippery driving conditions and the chance for visibility to be reduced during the heaviest of this rain.

Most of the rain will be out of the way before Thursday, but there could be some lingering into the earliest parts of the day. Mostly cloudy conditions prevail once it dries out.

Friday looks stellar! Saturday is nice as well. Friday will still have beach and water impacts from Erin, so a great outdoor day for non-beach-related activities.

OVERNIGHT: Showers and a stray thunderstorm early on, gradually improving into early Thursday.

THURSDAY: Highs in the low 70s, lows in the mid-60s. Breezy, morning rain, evening clouds.

FRIDAY: Sun and clouds and gusty at times. Highs in the high 70s and low 80s, lows in the higher 60s.

SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs in the low 80s, lows in the high 60s.

SUNDAY: Clouds, peeks of sun. Evening rain and storm chances. Highs in the low 80s, lows in the high 60s.

NEXT WEEK: Highs in the high 70s and low 80s, lows in the middle to higher 60s.
