I spent two years (sort of sabbatical) working for a company that studied red tide. I am fortunate in that I am not affected by the tide but many are. Even this news is shrugged off by real estate investors, especially on the barrier islands. What is of concern to me is the appearance of red tide so early in the year. The bloom has always occured when the gulf had warmed significantly. For the bloom to occur during winter is alarming. I have my own theories on the bloom based on my work (I am not a scientist BTW) with groups studying storm water run off, effluent from the Mississippi delta, etc. etc. The huge amounts of rain late last summer with the hurricanes may have something to do with it. We have also had extraordinary amounts of rain this dry season. In the meantime, I am booked out two months with appointments (for interior design) with no break in sight. MP
