Storms Probably Don't Affect Whales, Says Oregon Coast Expert
Storms Probably Don't Affect Whales, Says Oregon Coast Expert: "Depoe Bay, Oregon) – Recent storms on the Oregon coast seemed to have drained the cetacean spectacle a bit at Oregon’s whale watching central: Depoe Bay. There, the Whale Watch Center, run by Oregon State Parks and Recreation, sits on a basalt bluff that juts just a ways out into the ocean, keeping a close eye on the great beasts that wander past or loiter around the vicinity chomping on tons of tiny shrimp. They noticed a dramatic decline in whale spottings since the big storms of late October that brought huge swells and 80 mph gusts in some spots."
