Record sargassum seaweed in Atlantic, Mexico beaches covered

[OnlinePoker]

Tracking seaweed might sound like a boring job, but the scientists at the University of South Florida Optical Oceanography Lab take it very seriously.

At the end of May, they sounded the alarm: Sargassum seaweed is forming earlier and in more abundance than ever this season in the Atlantic -- worse than the record year of 2022.

At the end of May, the largest concentration of the 37.5 million metric tons of Sargassum was in the the eastern Caribbean Sea and western Atlantic. This broke historical records for the basin in both April and May. Piles of the stinky seaweed have rolled up on beaches in Puerto Rico already this June.
