2-Mile Dead Zone Confirmed In Chesapeake Bay
BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- The warm weather this summer, along with a lot of rain, is bad news for the Chesapeake Bay.
In June, scientists predicted a dead zone could form this summer, potentially harming marine life.
It turns out, they were right.
The two-mile dead zone is even worse than it's been in past years.
Scientists say the intense heat and freshwater pollution is to blame.
