Advisories were issued and then lifted at beaches in Monmouth and Ocean counties

Most of New Jersey is under an excessive heat warning, according to the National Weather Service.

The state Department of Environmental Protection has been periodically banning swimming and issuing advisories at various beaches due to high levels of fecal bacteria.
