Dramatic footage captured by Jennifer Hannux shows the relentless force of the surf as Hurricane Erin sends powerful waves crashing onto the shore.

The video reveals enormous waves surging toward the beach, breaking with tremendous energy. The water churns violently, spreading turbulence across the ocean’s surface.

In the foreground, sand, tall grasses, and a fence outline the coastline, highlighting the storm’s impact on the shore. A gray, overcast sky adds a foreboding atmosphere to the scene.

Even from offshore, the hurricane’s power is evident, with the footage illustrating the immense influence of the storm on coastal conditions.

Hannux commented: “Some MASSIVE surf right now in Ocean City Maryland. Very lucky this is an off shore cat 2 hurricane. Minimal impacts other than beach erosion and marshland flooding right now.”
