NOAA satellite risk for every stretch of coast. Report of October 20, 2026.
Each line is a stretch of coast, colored by NOAA's risk of sargassum reaching it. It's a satellite estimate for the coast, not a check of a specific beach.
Wind next 2 days: mostly from the north, 16–21 mph (National Weather Service). Wind blowing toward a coast pushes floating sargassum onto it, so north-facing beaches are more exposed. A hint, not a sargassum forecast.
