ATLANTIC HIGHLANDS – National Oceanic & Atmosphereic Administration reports an 85% chance that 2024 will see an above-normal Atlantic hurricane season, forecasting a range of 17 to 25 total named storms with 39 mph or higher winds. Every seaside community dreads news of a hyperactive storm season, but Atlantic Highlands is particularly vulnerable to the storms and the stormwater runoff cascading from the borough’s higher elevations.

The Harbor Commission held its monthly meeting March 7 at Borough Hall. During the session, commissioner James Krauss provided a report on recreational fishing, which he explained is “extremely important to our head boats, our charter boats, and a huge percentage of our power boats.” Head boats generally take larger numbers of guests out to fish at one time while charter boats are usually contracted by smaller private parties.
