Description | After a relatively warm summer and fall, and La Niña forming in the tropics, streamflows in the Puget Sound region are now relatively normal. Summer in Puget Sound produced lots of algal and organic material in the water and on beaches that, by October, have disappeared. Kelp beds look strong in northern Puget Sound and the Straits, and the harvest of the annual chum salmon run is in full swing in Hood Canal. Jellyfish aggregations are visible in Budd and Sinclair Inlets — and some of the jellyfish might conceal a beast of another kind within. Oil sheens on the water are currently numerous. | ||||
