The Tea Spill
Alright, listen up, Toronto fam! We gotta talk beaches. Apparently, Marie Curtis Park beach is serving some seriously 🚩🚩🚩 vibes right now. As of June 6 at 10 a.m., the water is a certified 🚫. I'm talking "do not enter" kinda situation. But, if you're still tryna catch some rays, Bluffer's Beach is still a W, so head on over there.
Why the drama? E. coli, bestie. When that bacteria hits 400 or more per 100 milliliters in one sample, or a geometric mean of 200 or more across five samples, it's a red flag. And when that happens, you're basically playing Russian Roulette with your digestive system. Think 🤢, 💩, and all-around bad vibes. Ain't nobody got time for that!
Pro-tip: If it's raining, the water looks sus (wavy or cloudy), there's a flock of birds doing their thing, or it's been raining cats and dogs lately, just skip the swim, okay? It's not worth the risk. Remember, beaches can be icky for a bunch of reasons – weather, runoff, pollution, all that jazz.
Big ups to the Torstar Open Data Team for keeping us in the loop! This info is auto-generated and updated regularly with the latest from Toronto Public Health. So, stay tuned, stay informed, and stay safe this summer, y'all! ❤️
