Cape Cod residents warned of great white shark migration headed their way

Researchers are warning beachgoers that they may not be the only ones headed to Cape Cod this summer, as great white sharks are expected there, too.

The warm weather in the northern U.S. typically coincides with the migration of the fierce creatures to the Massachusetts area.

Winton's words of caution followed a great white sighting on Tuesday that resulted in Head of the Meadow Beach in Truro, Mass., being closed for an hour.

It must be shark season -- NY just announced sightings and a teenage girl was recently bitten by a 9 ft. shark and seriously injured in the FL Panhandle.
