On Day 74 of the BP oil spill, there is growing fear that the oil-polluted waters could soon spread beyond the boundaries of the Gulf of Mexico, threatening the tourism industry along the eastern Florida coast.


Government forecasters now say there's up to an 80 percent chance that the massive spill will reach the waters off Miami by the middle of August, caught in the loop current around Florida and then pushed northward up the state's east coast at a rate of 100 miles per day.

they said it was just going to be a matter of time. Not IF but WHEN the oil would arrive in the keys. I guess now we know. I heard on the news tonight that they have evidence that it is now effecting the fish in our food chain.
