Florida NewsBy Wendi GrossmanThe Florida Department of Health issuing a blue-green algae alert for the Coral Gables canal-East Side. It comes thanks to too many toxins in the water. Nova Southeastern University's Dr. Jose Lopez says heed all the warnings don't swim in the water and do not let your pets drink from it.

That leads to water discoloration and odors harmful to people and animals.
