Red Tide?

[Biff]

Yippers; check this out ____>

Does anyone know who is responsible for supplying water samples? I am a little freaked out over this because I am asthmatic and Red Tide gives me fits.

My husband wasn't in the water. He was on the north side of 30-A, in Gulf Place, in a long-sleeve shirt and a tie, and the discomfort began immediately upon getting out of his car. Red tide was my first thought, but it could have been something in the landscaping.

Perhaps I should make him take me to Amore for lunch and see if it happens again. ;-)

Absolutely. This does need to be investigated further. I was on Seagrove Beach for most of the day yesterday. I didn't have the first hint of Red Tide symptom's no coughing , or irritated eyes. I was in the water as well. Must of been something in the landscaping. But a trip to have lunch on the deck at Amore's should clear it all up. ;-)

Hey THANKS! That is a much better reference. The other just say no samples given.

Thanks a lot. I have bookmarked that page.

Here is the link to red tide test results

Although the site says no red tide there are other inputs not reviewed. The dune lake at redfish drained two days ago. The dune lake is untested. This is a situation that surfrider panhandle chapter wants to correct. The dune lakes serve as wells of pollution, and when they don't drain regularly , they become quite fetid ! Last year redfish drained on august the 15th. What followed was a spate of unreported illness among the daily water users of blue mountain. When you smell the red tide, it is there. It may be a small local bloom such as enrichment from a dune lake drain. I have stayed out of the water for a couple days since redfish opened, and I am a daily beach and water user. I'll get back in today but if you smell it, and your sensitive to it be careful with your health. Do not think the government will do that for you.

Yeah, but it will have to wait. We did the final trip to the 331 instead.

Fortunately, there is nothing we are allergic to in the Bay!

I don't get it. Two of the pages say there were no samples, one page says there is no red tide, the pc beach chamber says there is, but the telelphone numbers all report no samples.

What gives?

What time was he at Gulf Place?

Ah... Amore,
