Harmful Algal Bloom Bulletins – 2026 Season
The National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science (NCCOS) is currently forecasting a moderate harmful algal bloom (HAB) season. As environmental conditions continue to change, this forecast may be revised accordingly. The current outlook is based in part on the relatively wet spring experienced in the region to date, along with measurements of Maumee River discharge used to support these projections. UWSS Inc. remains committed to monitoring algal conditions closely and ensuring that the most current information is available. This page will be updated as new information and forecasts are released.
Current projections indicate bloom conditions may be similar to those observed in 2022 and 2024. We will continue to post NCCOS prediction bulletins and summer forecasts as they become available.
