ALONG THE SOUTH COAST TOMORROW
AFTERNOON.
OTHERWISE WE ARE MOSTLY DRY, A
LITTLE COOLER, 70s AT THE
COASTLINE, LOW 80s FOR INLAND
SPOTS.
WE WILL STAY AROUND THERE FOR
SATURDAY, AND THE HEAT COMES
BACK.
ON SUNDAY, WE ARE APPROACHING
90.
SOME TOWNS MAY START A HEAT
WAVE, BUT THE REAL CORE OF THE
HEAT ARRIVING HERE, FOR THE
START OF NEXT WEEK.
WE ARE ADDING TO THAT 90 DEGREE
TOTAL, AND CERTAINLY JUST ENJOY
THE NEXT COUPLE BEFORE WE CRANK
IT BACK UP.
WE WILL TAKE A FULL LOOK AT THE
WEEKEND FORECAST IN A FEW
MINUTES.
THANK YOU, A VERY ACTIVE
DAY FOR SHARKS ON THE CAPE.
THIS WAS ONE SIGHTING OVER
NAUSET BEACH, A PAIR OF GREAT
WHITES, SWIMMING BY A PLEASURE
BOAT.
THAT WAS NOT THE ONLY BEACH
AFFECTED BY THE OCEAN
PREDATORS.
FOUR OTHERS WERE CLOSED TO
SWIMMING AT DIFFERENT POINTS
FOR SHARK SIGHTINGS.
AS NICK EVAN SHOWS US,
BEACHGOERS WERE TAKING
PRECAUTIONS, TO STAY CLOSE TO
SHORE.
Reporter: IT HAS BECOME A
COMMON SITE ON CAPE COD, GREAT
WHITE SHARKS, DOING WHAT THEY
DO BEST.
HUNTING FOR SEALS.
THEY WOULD BE THE MAIN
REASON THAT THE LARGE SHARKS
ARE COMING CLOSE TO SHORE.
Reporter: THE PROBLEM OF
COURSE IS WHEN PEOPLE AND
SKILLS SHARE THE SAME WATER.
IT WAS EASY FOR SKYEYE TO SPOT
THIS GREAT WHITE OFF OF BUSY
NAUSET BEACH THIS AFTERNOON.
AND WITHIN MINUTES, ANOTHER
ONE.
WATCH AS A SMALL FISHING BOAT
PULLS RIGHT UP ALONG SIDE SO
THOSE ON BOARD CAN SNAP A
PICTURE.
THE CLOSE ENCOUNTERS ARE A
POSSIBLE DANGER FOR SWIMMERS
AND SURFERS.
AS A RESULT, AT LEAST FIVE CAPE
COD BEACHES WERE CLOSED BECAUSE
OF SHARKS.
THE ATLANTIC WHITE SHARK
CONSERVANCY POSTED THIS VIDEO
OF THIS DOCTOR, TAGGING A GREAT
WHITE EARLIER IN THE DAY.
THE CONSERVANCY'S SHARK
ACTIVITY APP HAS BEEN LIGHTING
UP WITH SIGHTINGS IN RECENT
DAYS.
MORE PEOPLE ARE PAYING
ATTENTION RIGHT NOW WHICH IS
GREAT.
Reporter: NICK WHITNEY WITH
THE NEW ENGLAND AQUARIUM SAYS
THE INCREASE IN SIGHTINGS DOES
NOT NECESSARILY MEAN THERE IS
MORE SHARKS THIS YEAR.
IT IS TOO EARLY TO SAY
WHETHER THESE SIGHTINGS
INDICATE ANY LARGER NUMBER OF
SHARKS NEAR THE SHORE, THEN IN
ANY OTHER YEAR.
Reporter: HE SAYS THE SHARKS
WILL KEEP COMING BACK AS LONG
AS THERE IS PLENTY OF FOOD.
IT IS DEFINITELY THE PRIMARY
