NOAA forecasts an average summer 'dead zone' in Gulf of America

NOAA is forecasting this summer's Gulf of America (formerly Gulf of Mexico) "dead zone" to be average-sized, covering approximately 5,574 square miles—an area roughly three times the size of Delaware....

I find the verbage of "average sized dead zone" to be an interesting gauge of how normalized environmental destruction is becoming. As if a massive section of hypoxic oceaniss to be expected.
