Description
For anyone planning on going to the beach this coming weekend, there are a couple of locations to avoid after the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission released a recent red tide report.
Over the past week, the red tide organism, Karenia brevis, was detected in 78 samples collected from Florida's Gulf Coast, FWC explains. Bloom concentrations were found in 10 samples, with locally one being offshore of Pasco County, one in Pinellas County and two in Manatee County.
High concentrations were found in and offshore Pinellas County with very low to medium concentrations in Manatee County and background to low concentrations in Sarasota County.
