Destin Oil Conditions--News Organizations Don't Tell Truth!

"About 60,000 square miles of gulf waters remain closed to fishing, and more than 600 miles of coastline across four U.S. states have been smeared with oil." This is a quote taken from this mornings news report on the internet and exactly what's wrong with the news!!  Looking for sensationalism.  The facts are these--from Pensacola on the western end of the Florida panhandle to the rest of the Florida coastline touched by the Gulf of Mexico, the beaches are white, clean, and the water is beautiful.  Business is down about 50% and many people are missing out on their summer vacation in Destin because the news organizations have frightened them--people have visions of beaches covered with black oil.  Nothing could be further from the truth!  If you were planning a visit to the Gulf Coast, come ahead, conditions are great as usual.  Go to http://www.destinhomerealtor.com/ or http://www.oilslickdestin.com/ for a live web cam and many other live feeds and factual reports.  If you have any other doubts, feel free to send a question to MykeSaysSold@aol.com.

Gulf Oil Spill Latest Location

The NOAA Oil Spill Trajectory shows the oil plume 60 miles from Pensacola, and 140
miles from Panama City. While NOAA oil trajectories forecast oil patches to remain well
south and west of Florida, with no direct oil impacts through at least Friday, scattered
tarball fields already nearshore may continue to be carried onshore along the Panhandle
coast. Winds and currents may also push pockets of light sheen or tarmats eastward and
the uncertainty line for possible oil extends east to around 25 miles south of Perdido Key
by Friday. Offshore, no oil has been observed within or moving towards Eddy Franklin for
over 4 weeks and there is no clear path for oil to enter the Florida Straits.

.I have checked the Reconnaisance reports for July 25, 2010, and the three county area is an all clear for any evidence of any oil product. On the ERMA map, there is also no indication of oil product present. Beaches are open, vacationers are enjoying a VERY warm Gulf of Mexico free of any contaminants. I was at the beach on Sunday, and there was some "seaweed" present, but otherwise the beaches were beautiful. The waves were rough, and there were double red flags on Sunday from Tropical Storm Bonnie, which is now passed. So, if you were thinking about coming to Destin or Santa Rosa Beach or Navarre on vacation, don't change your plans, because you will be looking forward to a wonderful time.

Aircraft are having difficulty finding oil sheen from the air, however there is little known about where or when the oil and damage will show up. For now, the weather is great, the water is great, and the beaches are white as they have always been, so do not hesitate to come for a visit or a vacation.
