Satellite images show a train of sargassum seaweed stretching from the west coast of Africa to Florida<\/a>, stretching as far as 5,000 miles.<\/p>\n

With a width of nearly twice that of the U.S., the seaweed is expected<\/a> to move toward Florida and the Caribbean, ultimately piling up along some of the most beautiful beaches in the world.<\/p>\n

According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, or NOAA, Sargassum is a large brown seaweed that “floats in island-like masses,” yet never attaches to the bed of the sea.<\/p>\n

GIANT BLOB OF SEAWEED TWICE THE WIDTH OF US TAKING AIM AT FLORIDA, SCIENTISTS SAY<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Images on the University of South Florida College of Marine Science Optical Oceanography Laboratory website shows the massive size of the bloom.<\/p>\n

The Sargassum Watch System, or SaWS, uses satellite data and models to track sargassum in “near-real time.<\/p>\n

While sargassum offers a great habitat for marine animals because of its source of food, shade and shelter, it also can be used to protect sand dunes by fertilizing and strengthening the grassroots.<\/p>\n

But when copious amounts of sargassum piles up on the beaches, it has the potential of causing many problems<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The university website says when sargassum decomposes, it can create a bad stench that attracts bugs and can smother turtle nests, among other things.<\/p>\n

The bugs and the smell can also hurt tourism, impacting economics of tropical locations.<\/p>\n

Many times, the sargassum, when piled up in enormous amounts, must physically be removed from the beaches.<\/p>\n

MASSIVE SMELLY ALGAE BLOOM NEARING FLORIDA WILL IMPACT HEALTH OF RESIDENTS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

As the bloom moves toward the coast, some Floridians have complained about burning eyes and breathing problems. Dead fish have washed up and a beachside festival scheduled a month away was canceled.<\/p>\n

The southwest coast of Florida experienced a toxic red tide algae earlier this month, sparking concerns it could stick around for a while.<\/p>\n

Red tide naturally occurs in the Gulf of Mexico and is oftentimes made worse by humans because of the presence of nutrients like nitrogen in the water.<\/p>\n

People are advised to not swim in red tide waters because of respiratory issues as well as skin irritation, rashes and sore eyes.<\/p>\n
