Bloom Description

Volunteer reports: The HAB was in my zone as well as north or Ellis Point at least 3/4 mile. Was not a solid mass, but collecting on the downwind side of any shoreline contours or obstructions. Flat calm at time of siting. HAB was in close to shore, but streaks were further out. No rain for days. The wind picked up out of the NW and it all dispersed within a couple of hours.
