Title says it all. I believe we have some folks that live on the water, or really close.

I have not heard anything yet. Corpus Christi bay water temps were around 40 last night according to the local news. I'd be more worried about the Laguna. We should start hearing stuff today and tomorrow. Good news is it's going to warm up fast today.
Talking to a friend who lives on the bay in Anahuac, he is not expecting a big fish kill.
He said there have been enough cold spells, rain run off from the Trinity a few weeks ago and a recent low tide to move the fish to deeper water this year.

I'm on the water near the JFK causeway. Still holding out hope, I haven't seen any floating fish just yet. I'm hoping the gradual cooling temps allowed the fish to find some deeper water to hide out in. I'll update if I see things changing.
Capt. Jim West, down on Bolivar is monitoring it on Facebook. Water temps in upper 30's. He said water temps are getting close to fish kill levels.
Usually requires 3 things: lower tides, lengthy cold, extended north/northwest wind.
This moves out water volume and reduces depths leaving less of a buffer to temp change, exposed it to cold longer, and that is what causes big kills. I don't think that happened.

I think it was cold enough with a gradual enough drop in temps that the fish had time to move to deeper water to weather the cold vs. extremely rapid drops in the past.
Turtles were pretty cold, buddy saved a few.

Turtles are sitting ducks when shocked/stunned by colder water temps.
