SOS Hot Water Report | September 2, 2020
Orca Conservancy is sharing the Hot Water Report from the Save Our wild Salmon Coalition. This weekly report presents the conditions of the Lower Snake and Columbia Rivers and the impact the warming water temperatures are having on endangered wild salmon populations. Since wild Chinook salmon is the #1 food source for the endangered Southern Resident killer whale (SRKW) population, monitoring these reports is important as we work to breach the Lower Snake River Dams. This week’s report is the final Hot Water Report for the season. This does not mean that the temperatures will cool quickly unfortunately for the salmon and the Southern Residents.
