To: Alas Babylon!
Cloudy, foggy weather is common on Cape Cod...
What happens if they miss seeing a shark and someone gets hurt or killed?
Will there be lawsuits?

So far people have been hospitalized and one fatality because of shark attacks on Cape Cod, and no lawsuits.

I guess where voluntary risk is involved, you are on your own. - Tom

I’m “pretty sure” that before too long that some shyster WILL sue some city//county/state/person for a person being attacked by a shark, inasmuch as I know of a case where a homeowner sued his own wife (The plaintiff was ACTUALLY sueing their homeowner’s insurance company.) for the family dog “wrongfully & routinely waking me up before 5AM”. = You can sue ANYBODY for ANY cause, real or imagined.
(WINNING the case is a different kettle of fish.)
