It’s almost impossible to say exactly where the brown tide is at any given moment, because blooms constantly expand and contract and move around in response to winds and tides. It’s important to realize that brown tides are patchy and don’t cover the expanse of the Laguna Madre. They often concentrate in areas sheltered from the wind or tidal currents.
