How To Use This Page
This page gives swimmers deeper historical context for Lovers Key State Park: recent readings, spike frequency, and how often the displayed station history has reached poor territory.
Use this view as a decision aid, not a guarantee. The latest sample, visible runoff, and recent weather still matter more than any single list or chart.
