FWRI sampling continues to observe Karenia brevis (red tide) along the northeast Florida coast over the past week. However, due to a significant change in infrastructure, we have not incorporated water sample data into our models since the previous bulletin. Low to moderate respiratory conditions may be possible on shorelines that are downwind of K. brevis accumulations. Please see the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission Red Tide Current Status for up-to-date information on bloom location. We will send another bulletin to notify you when the current infrastructure issues are resolved. Any updates will also be posted on the NCCOS Gulf Coast Harmful Algal Bloom Forecast webpage.
This bulletin provides forecast updates and reminders of the Karenia brevis harmful algal blooms (HABs) in southwestern Florida. Please find up-to-date analysis, satellite imagery, and forecasts at the Florida HAB Forecast System.
Subscribers will receive notices of changes or improvements to the forecasting system. Subscribers will also be periodically reminded to check the HAB Forecast System, especially when there are major changes in bloom status.
