I would take this warning pretty seriously. A few years ago another algae bloom occurred and my father and i suffered from puffy eyes. mine weren’t so bad but my dad’s eyes closed over within minutes. We nicknamed him “PUFF DADDY” it was that bad. I have caught and eaten scallops near woody island this week and they have been fine. The experience has turned my dad of scallops forever.
