The Florida Keys & Key West tourism council has added a component to its www.fla-keys.com website to provide travelers up-to-date information regarding the TransOcean/BP Oil spill in the northern Gulf of Mexico.
The direct link to this information can be found at: http://www.fla-keys.com/news/news.cfm?sid=7729
The 72-hour forecast maps are updated on a daily basis plot and project approximate positions of the oil slick. The latest forecast shows little movement from northern Gulf waters.
"Our visitor centers and hotels have been receiving phone calls from vacationers concerned about traveling to the Keys," said Harold Wheeler, director of the Keys tourism council. "We understand their apprehension and wanted to provide a trusted information resource based on information from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and other official sources."
