Florida Braces for Worst Sargassum Seaweed Bloom on Record

Florida beaches are experiencing a massive invasion of seaweed called sargassum, which could be the largest bloom ever recorded. The seaweed has been seen stretching over 5,000 miles in the Atlantic Ocean and is already washing ashore in South Florida. The bloom is expected to move towards the Caribbean region and the Gulf of Mexico in the coming months. Researchers say there is no need to be alarmed as the bloom depends on currents and winds.
