Stingrays Playing on the Gulf Beaches

Warm weather and hot summer gulf of mexico water temperatures have brought the stingrays up close on the Gulf Beaches.




Each afternoon this week small schools of stingray have been seen playing in the surf and eating small schools of minnow that are taking advantage of the 80 degree Gulf of Mexico water.

Other than causing quite a commotion each time they arrive, these small stingray are not interested in hurting swimmers.

The best advice for avoiding a nasty sting is for swimmers to shuffle their feet when walking into the surf and to be aware should they end up standing in a school of the little guys.

As you can see from the video attached, the stingray are quite harmless as long as you remain calm and stand still while they pass.

Water Spouts - Tampa Bay Beaches

The weather has been strange on the gulf coast this week.

Yesterday brought strong rain to some areas, while others got little or none.

Along the Gulf Beaches several water spouts were seen with one also forming in the Bay as the storms moved into Tampa proper.
