The Potential Dangers of Natural Sea Foam
2025-09-09
"I’ll never forget that trip to the Oregon coast back in ’23. A storm had just rolled through, leaving behind colossal, meringue-like drifts of sea foam. It was a photographer’s dream. My first instinct was to run right into it, but something held me back. A strange, faint smell, and the slightly off-color tint made me pause. That pause led me down a research rabbit hole.
"What I discovered was fascinating and, frankly, a little unnerving. The key isn’t the foam itself, but what’s trapped inside it. It’s an incredible natural concentrator, which can be both beautiful and hazardous.
"My goal with this article is to share what I’ve learned over the years, not to scare you away from the beach, but to empower you. We’ll break down what sea foam is, when it’s perfectly safe, and the specific signs that tell you to keep your distance. You’ll leave knowing exactly how to enjoy the coast safely and confidently."

@ai6yr Los Angeles still in a #Covid surge. All the other tested for viruses pretty much non existent at this time.
p.s. I see they've added measles to the #wastewater testing regimen! None detected so far.

Greetings, here are the weekly #washingtonstate #kingcounty (that is, #seattle and environs) #COVID #COVID19 #wastewater toots.
A reminder that this King County respiratory disease data comes from Washington State, not the federal government.For the last couple of weeks I’ve been highlighting the bad SARS-CoV2 concentration numbers from the West Point (WSPT) sewage treatment plant, which finally improved in last week's reporting. This week, they're headed back up. The last seven day running average calculation was done on 9/15.
WSPT is one of three King County(-ish) sewersheds in this dataset. You can find overviews, individual sewershed results, and a breakdown of variants for the state wastewater surveillance program, along with other metrics like case counts and hospitalizations for Covid-19 and other respiratory illnesses, at https://doh.wa.gov/data-and-statistical-reports/diseases-and-chronic-conditions/communicable-disease-surveillance-data/respiratory-illness-data-dashboard#WasteWater. If you go to the page and click "learn more" in the statewide view tab, you can find out lots of details about how these data are calculated and how to interpret them. The dashboard gets updated every Wednesday (generally). The Department of Health is here on the fediweb, at @WADeptHealth

#NYC #COVID #wastewater counts are still available on the New York State run portal, but not in the State open data repository.
In the State portal, #COVIDWastewater data is only available as one of two embedded Tableau charts - a graph or a map. The embed code is available, but it is a permalink to a snapshot of the data in time; it does not always show the most current data.

The #NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene released its July #COVIDWastewater data on August 3. It's now September 14, and there's no sign of the August data.
#Wastewater concentration is one of the most important indicators in the beginning of a #COVID wave.
The samples are tested within a few days of being collected. Something the Department of Environmental Protection or the DOHMH is doing between testing and the public repository is taking way too long.

Hi, these are the weekly #washingtonstate #kingcounty (that is, #seattle and environs) #COVID #COVID19 #wastewater toots.
A quick reminder that this King County respiratory disease data comes from Washington State, not the federal government.
Last week I highlighted really terrible SARS-CoV2 concentration numbers from the West Point (WSPT) sewage treatment plant's 7 day running average for 8/25, but said, maybe this is a crazy outlier, let's see next week's numbers. Well, they're in, and the updated numbers are quite, quite bad. These calculations of the 7DRA were done on 8/30 and 9/1, and they are by far the worst numbers we've seen in a year (which is as far back as the dataset goes). :( :( :(
