Oregon Coast Labor Day weekend water quality ADVISORY

Its funny, being a lifelong east coaster I always imagined the PNW as being the last bastion of clean, natural America.

Now with all the smoke, fires, Seattles low air quality, fecal levels in the beaches I'm starting to rethink that!
 
Hey Jason, You do know that the weather moves from west to east, so even if there are influences from the south or Gulf, much of that weather came from here :lol:

Now the water "pollutants", that comes from "up stream"

We do still have clean air and clean water, most places, most of the time.

Ordutch, thanks for the posting and link. Good info to know.

Jason, having grown up, or at least tried to grow up, in Medford, MA, I certainly understand what you are saying. But rest assured, the Northwest is truly a beautiful place. I love Boston, but I found my home in the NW.
 
'And it is an interesting biological fact that all of us have, in our veins the exact same percentage of salt in our blood that exists in the ocean, and, therefore, we have salt in our blood, in our sweat, in our tears. We are tied to the ocean. And when we go back to the sea, whether it is to sail or to watch it, we are going back from whence we came. " -JFK

FWIW - Seawater is about 3.5% salt versus .9% for humans. At 3.5% I suspect you would be fish bait
