Yep confirmed red tide for the rich folk. Floridians did it to ourselves. Never called the politicians out. $hit Scott and DeSantis both have chances to be elected. Crackers don't surf but they vote...

In Indi the seaweed doubled in quantity last night, dusk session was twice as much seaweed as the day before. Getting real thick in the Shore break. I suspect tonight's session will have double the amount of last night. Soon it will be knee deep on the beaches. Hopefully the Red Tide stays down south but its been up hear before to the point you could not breath very well, happens once every 5-10 years. I suspect this trend will change to it occurring more often.

All county-operated beach parks in Palm Beach County are closed.

We could feel it near Jup Inlet early this morning, burning eyes and irritated lungs.

Felt the burn this morning in MelBch. Typical eye burn, lips and tongue tingle, watery eyes and nose, tight throat, cough. So yup, it's here.
People coughing all over Public parking lot just now.
Neighbors thought they were getting sick, were on their way to the doctor when I mentioned the red tide. They were relieved.

Replace turf grass with native plants that don't need irrigation and synthetic fertilizers or chemicals that can go into our waterways and ocean

Dead fish on Mel Beach. All bait fish so hopefully it isn't too bad.

That crap is brutal. Let's hope it doesn't coincide with our first north swell of the year.

Did a quick check across the street ystrdy morn and about ---k'in asphixiated(sp)~~!! WhOa- That's ---ked up. Kinda not wanting to hit that again, feels like it's gonna definitely short'n the life span. How we gonna know when it's gone 'round here? -so. beaches- Wonder how far up the IRL? Anyone know if it's anywhere up past the Inlet between there and say the bridges?

Well, our marine forecast just changed to hard straight East then SE winds.... hopefully its not taking a ride too far north in the stream Man, I remember when it was bad here like 15+ years ago. I couldnt even look at the ocean if the wind was onshore (and I was living very close to the beach at the time) even my dog would sneeze and cough as soon as we walked over the dune line .... and since then several of my friends are now fishing charter captains. It would crush their business in an upcoming slow time. REALLY hope we dont go through that again

Brevard Surf Report

From my recollection I surfed it the last time it was here. The surf was decent during that time and kind of worth it but it is gnarly. 2ndlight had good sandbars then, Cocoa Beach too. By the 6th or seventh week the novelty was wearing off. The day it left it disappeared like it had never happened.

It is a disaster to those with respiratory problems.

Yeah, I remember an extended run of waves when it hapenned (spring time?).... but I also remember saying FUKTHAT! Eyes and nose burned just looking at the ocean at the time. I think it was only a few weeks up here (again it was a long time ago, and I really dont remember all the details)

Def some in the air in Brevard with onshore winds today.
