Hazardous marine and beach conditions continue today as a cold front pushes through the area later this morning and Hurricane Melissa progresses northwards in the western Atlantic. Be cautious if heading out into the water today!

A cooler and drier weather pattern is expected across the region resulting in temperatures falling back into the 30s the next several nights. This will create the likelihood of frost. Take proper precautions to protect sensitive plants.
