Summary
Lake Wylie’s water’s looking risky this holiday weekend—drought and extreme heat are fueling dangerous algae blooms and toxins, even as water levels dip. While May-June rains helped ease the worst of the drought, restrictions remain, and shallow, stagnant water combined with heat creates prime conditions for harmful algae like lyngbya, which thrives in popular swimming spots and looks just like green water. Don’t swim near any odd growth—report blooms to DEQ or Catawba Riverkeeper and stay safe.
