North Coast Recreational Water Quality Site

[stephen davis]

A system that uses near real-time information to "nowcast" water-quality conditions at eight Lake Erie beaches, and one recreational river.

Swimmers and boaters may want to check this Ohio Nowcast site before entering the water. It lists E. coli bacteria concentrations along the Lake Erie coast.

Here is the link:

With all this rain, the near-shore water can be pretty nasty.

Check other sites for weather and undertow/rip current conditions.

Be careful out there.
