Show Notes

Surfers in Southern California are enjoying unusually warm ocean temperatures this March, thanks to a persistent marine heatwave. This Blob three point zero has brought exotic fish and disrupted local ecosystems in the past. While locals are excited about potential tropical catches, researchers warn of downsides like struggling kelp forests and impacts on salmon runs. A possible super El Niño later this year could bring wetter winters and bigger storms, with potential coastal erosion. As teams monitor fish movements and water changes, the coming months will reveal the full impact of this heat on beaches, fisheries, and marine life.
