Today's update on Red Tide


In southwest Florida, Karenia brevis, the Florida red tide organism, was not detected in water samples collected this week alongshore of Collier County.  One sample (out of 18 total samples) collected alongshore of Sarasota County contained very low concentrations of K. brevis.
 
Sampling will continue this week, and complete results will be available in the next scheduled status report on Friday, February 26.
