NEWS 12 NEW JERSEY REPORTED THURSDAY AFTERNOON THAT BAD WEATHER HAS CAUSED JERSEY SHORE CHARTER COMPANIES' REVENUE TO SINK. DESPITE BEING BUILT FOR BAD WEATHER, LARGE CHARTER BOATS HAVE BECOME UNSAFE FOR PASSENGERS DUE TO HEAVY WINDS AND ROUGH WATERS. THE PROLONGED STRETCH OF ROUGH WATERS HAS LEFT JERSEY SHORE TO TAKE A SUBSTANTIAL ECONOMIC HIT. NORTHEAST WINDS OVER THE PAST 5 DAYS HAVE RESULTED IN VIOLENT WATERS, FORCING CHARTER BOAT CANCELLATIONS. FOR EARLY-FALL FISHING, WHERE CAPTAINS AND BUSINESS OWNERS ARE USED TO THE BUSYING OF THE SEASON, WEATHER DELAYS THIS LONG ARE VERY RARE. IT IS ANTICIPATED THAT THE STRONG WINDS WILL CONTINUE PUSHING WATER INTO BACK BAYS AND AGAINST SHORELINE BARRIERS. COASTAL COMMUNITIES ARE ANTICIPATING HIGH TIDES AND POTENTIAL FLOODING.
