Sea foam
During live coverage of Hurricane Irene in Ocean City, Maryland, Barnes was covered in sea foam. Sue Palka, WTTG's Chief Meteorologist, described the sea foam as a natural occurrence caused by "matter in the water" such as proteins or sewage. Barnes said that the sea foam "tastes like sand.... has sort of a sand consistency" The Twitter hashtag [http://twitter.com/#!/search?q=%23seafoam #seafoam] was created to track the trending topic.
According to the Town of Ocean City, the sea foam did not contain any raw sewage.
