Lake Shawnee Algae Alert | Topeka News

Lake Shawnee’s water’s now under watch for blue-green algae—don’t swim or play if it looks weird, smells off, or has foam or scum on the surface. These blooms can make you or your pets sick with rashes, vomiting, headaches, or sore throats—just rinse off if exposed and report any sightings or reactions to KDHE. Other lakes across the state are also on alert, some with active blooms, others cleared. Stay sharp: if it looks suspicious, stay out and keep your pets away.
