Description

From the City of Dunedin: September 3, 2021 Visit St. Pete/Clearwater has updated information on beach conditions and Red Tide. Information and updates on Red Tide are available here. See also a map which is updated with new Red tide status as it becomes available. This experimental tool tries to predict where the air may cause irritation based on wind and ocean current forecasts. Other recommendations include: Do not swim around dead fish. Stay away locations affected by red tide if you have chronic breathing conditions. Do not harvest or eat shellfish and distressed or dead fish from this location. Healthy fish should be rinsed with tap or bottled water and throw away the guts. Keep pets away from water, sea foam, and dead animals. Those living in beach areas should close windows and run the air conditioner. If outdoors, the FDH recommends paper filter masks, especially if onshore winds are blowing. This press release was produced by the City of Dunedin. The views expressed here are the author's own.
