A "red tide" algae bloom in the Gulf of Mexico has led to the closing of Mississippi beaches, the shutdown of oyster harvesting areas in Mississippi and Louisiana, and warnings of potential fish kills and human health problems in Alabama. The Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality closed all beaches Friday, and the state's Department of Marine Resources closed all oyster reefs.
