NYC Beaches Closed Wednesday Due to Hermine

All New York City beaches will be closed to swimming, bathing and surfing on Wednesday, the Parks Department said Tuesday.

NYC Parks cited "life-threatening rip currents" from Post-Tropical Cyclone Hermine, which was still churning the waters around the tri-state area Tuesday afternoon. 

Still, the storm was steadily moving away, and the National Weather Service dropped the tropical storm warnings for the region.
