Thanks for your update! Much appreciated. Do you know why there is so much seaweed in the water the past 2 days? It's turning off the family from spending time in the water?

Dear Anonymous,
I know the currents are responsible for bringing it onshore. I've seen seaweed down on the Crest beaches yet some beaches don't have it. Anyway, I'm not really sure why some days the ocean provides a lot of seaweed. The Caribbean had a record year with seaweed growth in its waters. Florida felt that one. Not sure if our coast is part of that same path. Some say it's global warming (heating up those waters more than normal).
