Beaches across the United States are facing hazardous conditions and health advisories affecting swimmers. In West Michigan, breezy conditions with winds up to 25 mph and waves up to 6 feet have led to alerts through Saturday night, urging beachgoers to stay out of the water due to dangerous currents. Similarly, Virginia Beach and Hampton beaches have issued swimming advisories due to elevated levels of enterococci bacteria, posing a risk of gastrointestinal illnesses. Chicago's beaches are also closed due to potentially deadly conditions with waves up to 7 feet and dangerous currents, enforced by a beach hazards warning from the National Weather Service. Authorities across these regions have emphasized the importance of heeding warnings to ensure public safety.
