The State Department of Health and Environment says as you begin spending more time outside and near water, it’s important to remember to watch for harmful algal blooms and check the lake advisory list. They can develop quickly and can be very dangerous to pets or livestock that swim in and drink the water or eat dried algae. Be sure to avoid water that is bright green or has scum, a paint-like surface, or floating blue-green clumps.
