In lakes, observations of cyanobacterial blooms have decreased from last week due to rainy and windy weather. In the northern Baltic proper, there are a lot of cyanobacteria mixed into the water, and surface blooms have also started to occur. Only a couple of cyanobacterial observations have been reported from the coastal areas.
