This is super common at most of the resorts at most of the beaches in the Gulf of Mexico. The nicest resorts will usually shovel it all the way with a bulldozer super early in the morning, but it's a regular occurrence.
I have anecdotally been told by people that work on these Resorts that it's only become a common occurrence in the last 15ish years and is generally believed to be caused by global warming.
In April, the University of South Florida estimated this year’s bloom is already at 31 million tons — “40% more” than the previous record from June 2022, according to LaPointe.
