Pensacola Fla: swimming advisory from oil spill
- Thread starter bluestang41505
- Start date
Man o man. Many places here in FL were hoping to get some help from a strong summer crowd to break even during this economy. I fear many long time businesses won't take the strain. Housing is going to be in the tank for at least 3 years.
With all the knowledge and might of this nation I am stunned at the total unpreparedness of the whole thing too.
Its horrific for sure, but sadly seems like only the beginning. Beach closures along the entire west coast of Fla i see in the near future...
Like leaking a billion gallons of oil into the ocean isn't?
It's disgusting. I picked up a mason jar of this crud last night.
What kills me is that they're turning away volunteers trying to help the clean up effort because we havent taken the right classes.

freaking awful. its so sad. i love going to the beautiful panhandle beaches in Destin, Ft. Walton, Seaside, Panama City, etc... Wanted to go for the 4th, but looks like we will be headed the opposite direction to South Padre Island now. This mess just blows for all along the Gulf.
I was at the beach last saturday. It was nice out then. Things changed.
Exactly, none here either. I`m just horth of you. A few of my friends in real estate have seen quite a bit of a slow down since this BS happened. F***ing rediculous!No oil here yet. Yet being the key word I fear.
The way I look at it is if/when it does reach our shores then the whole state and this side of the gullf will be ****ed for quite some time. If/when it reaches here that will mean a whole shitload will be getting sucked through the gulf stream down south and around the peninsula.
Any of you guy's live in Destin? How are the beaches? We are scheduled to come down next month July 17-24 and we couldn't get our deposit back on the condo. My son has his heart set on fishing but I am afraid his is gonna be SOL

After seeing the effects of the chemicals they're using, including long term organ damage, I'm not surprised that they want volunteers to be prepared.
My 4 year old son has his heart on going to the beach next week since he's never been and I hate to break his heart but I don't think we're gonna make it. Is there anyplace down there that hasn't been impacted yet? We were suppose to leave next thursday. I've heard Pensacola, Gulf Shores, Destin, and Panama city all have had it show up. Is there any place east of those places because I looked on the map and have never heard of any of the other towns that are on the map.
Waste of oil 
If housing tanks too much I see me biting the bullet ahead of schedule and picking up a place. Oil won't be there when I'm old enough to visit regularly lol
