I presume this means that although it's harmless (apart from folk freaking at goop on the beaches) the fish will head offshore into deeper, better oxygenated water.There is an algal bloom of Phaeocystis - not harmful.

Algal bloom
I heard from a friend that the EPA had warned of an algal bloom on the east coast so I tweeted to them today. They replied:
Species 2022: Halibut, Coalfish, Cod, Haddock, Pollack, Whiting, Mackerel, Wolffish, Redfish, Torsk
