New: A gorgeous forecast continues for New England , and the tri-state. Tons of sun with highs flirting with 80. The only concern is the rip current risk at the Jersey Shore which is high, so swimmers need to swim in protected areas only. Next: More of the same! We have a dry week with mostly sunny skies and highs climbing into the 70s for most of the workweek!

News 12 Storm Watch Team Meteorologist Dave Curren says there will be plenty of sunny with warmer weather coming for the rest of the workweek.
