• Lake Advisory Issued For Swim Beach At Eureka Lake; Blue-Green Algae Advisory Lifted (eurekaherald.com) — Health officials have lifted the blue‑green algae warning for Eureka Lake but are now warning people to stay out of the swim beach because of elevated E. coli levels. Only the swim beach is affected, and children and pets should avoid the water there until new tests show it’s safe. KDHE is investigating the source and will update advisories as conditions change.
