A national advisory warned of “moderate to high risk of respiratory irritation” because of red tide. Harmful algae blooms are painting coastal shores in Florida red and leaving swaths of dead fish — weeks before people flock to the beach for spring break.
early Monday, warning of “moderate to high risk of respiratory irritation” because of red tide in some areas including Charlotte, Collier, Lee, Manatee, Pinellas and Sarasota counties.
The algae also kill seabirds, especially diving birds, that eat fish exposed to the toxins. Sea turtles, manatees and dolphins have also been casualties of red tide.The algae live in the Gulf of Mexico and tend to form high-concentration clusters off the coasts in the fall, Stumpf said. By winter, high-pressure weather systems swoop over Florida with northerly winds that push the algae from the shore and back to the gulf.
In recent weeks, Florida has had abnormally warm air and water temperatures. Along the state’s western Gulf Coast, waters are 5.4 degrees to 10.8 degrees above average.
