Storm warnings were in effect Monday from Long Island to Nantucket
as post-Tropical Cyclone Hermine drifted slowly up the Atlantic,
promising near hurricane-strength winds, floods and beach erosion.
The National Weather Service said large waves
will pound the East Coast from the mid-Atlantic states to southern New
England through the end of Labor Day. Life-threatening rip currents are
expected at least into the middle of the week, it added.
At 11 a.m. ET, Hermine was about 230 miles
southeast of the eastern tip of Long Island, N.Y. The storm was moving
northwest at 6 mph and expected to will "meander slowly offshore of the
New England coast through Tuesday," according to the National Weather
