Look but don't touch! This month, NOAA GLERL & partners will deploy a SeaTrac Uncrewed Surface Vehicle (USV) in western #LakeErie to monitor the harmful algal bloom. If you encounter the USV out on the lake, we request that you do not touch it and please stay at least 25 ft away.

Most people know they should bring reusable bags to the shops, but many... don't. Why is that? Extension educators Jill Bartolotta and Scott Hardy had some ideas in this #FreshwaterScience webinar: ohioseagrant.osu.edu/news/ca… #BestOfSeaGrant

Please Wear It@pleasewearit22 Jul 2022
Knowing the four signs of a drowning person and how to properly rescue somebody is important, but something even more critical is wearing a life jacket because it drastically increases your chances of survival, so #PleaseWearIt.

With heatwaves afflicting much of the U.S., there is at least one place that is colder than normal: Lake Superior. The chilly water is a remnant of last winter's below-average air temperatures over the lake. go.nasa.gov/3zlklI3
A map of the Great Lakes region showing Lake Superior's colder than normal water temperatures as dark blue. The other Great Lakes are white or pale blue, indicating closer to normal temperatures for this time of year.

Fenders on your boat are great, but they don't do much against a piling. For that you need a fender board or fender plank. We'll show you how to make a fender board in about half an hour with about $15 of materials. #boatlife spr.ly/6016z95Zq
