The algae on North Pond began blooming about two weeks ago during a patch of hot weather, making the pond resemble a bowl of pea soup. The bloom on the pond has improved in recent days but could worsen with the withering heat that has moved into central Maine, according to a scientist with the 7 Lakes Alliance conservation group. People are urged not to go into the water if the clarity drops to 3 feet.
