This graphic was made from the preceding one. The color coded threat levels have been convolved with a Gaussian probability distribution to estimate the extent of die-off-related trouble spilling across county lines.

Note that the threat in coastal counties may be underestimated in the graphic due to the blurring of the blue color representing lake and ocean waters. For these counties, the unblurred threat assessment graphic provides a more reliable estimate of danger.

If you live in South Carolina, consider moving ASAP. No place in South Carolina will be safe during the die-off. The same is true for central and southern Florida.
