Blue-Green Algae Bloom Tracker
No lake in the United States (49 states), Canada (Ontario, Québec, Nova Scotia, British Columbia and Newfoundland and Labrador), and 38 other country hubs. we cover is showing an elevated blue-green algae reading in EPA CyAN satellite data from the last four weeks. Blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) can produce toxins that are dangerous to people and fatal to dogs, so keep out of any water with visible scum and check your state’s current advisory before you swim.
Bloom-prone lakes by state
Lakes most likely to develop blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) blooms across our 41 covered states, based on chlorophyll-a measurements above 20 µg/L. These are bloom-prone waters — not necessarily active advisories.
For real-time current advisories, always check the state agencies directly:

All algae-risk lakes in Newfoundland and Labrador →If you see a bloom
- Do not swim or let pets enter the water.
- Do not drink, cook with, or boil the water (boiling concentrates the toxins).
- Rinse off immediately with clean water if exposed.
- Report the bloom to your state environmental agency (e.g. MN PCA at health.algae@state.mn.us, or WI DNR).
- Watch dogs closely after lake exposure — symptoms can appear within 30-60 minutes.
