While humans were uncomfortable during the blast of record cold weather in the past few days, the real damage will be the loss of thousands of fish. Soon there will be every species of game fish floating along our shores. Already there have been reports of snook, one of the more temperature sensitive fish, floating in the bays and backwaters. Sea turtles have also perished, but the Clearwater Marine Aquarium has rescued many of these lumbering animals along our beaches.
The water temperature becomes dangerous for our waters around 50 degrees and deadly below that.
