Green slime at the North Jetty eddying around... the subject of KHUM 104.3 FM's most recent Coastal Currents.

Humboldt Baykeeper's Pete Nichols says surfers are calling the city saying they're sick from it. Anyone have first-hand experience? We've noticed some foam around the jetty, definitely, but no side effects.

In any case, episodes like this are exactly why Humboldt Surfrider is raising funds for our very own water quality lab! Help support the cause by donating, volunteering, even picking up an awesome hoodie or T-shirt at Greenhouse:
