The purple flag looks to be flying on the SoWal webcam. Hopefully, the jellies will move on in a few days.

Correct. Just went down to take a look at the world's most beautiful beach. :love: Yellow and purple flags flying. Not sure if they are current...:clap_1: ...a pun! The water is deceiving people...it looks as calm as a swimming pool. Met a man with his toddler son on the boardwalk and struck up a conversation about whether the purple flag meant jellyfish or something else. He was standing right by the flags and flag sign and didn't even "see" it until I referenced it. Once again, you can put up all the signs you want, but you can't make people read and heed them. :dunno:

It is a Chamber of Commerce day. Perfect water, perfect beach, not many jellyfish (saw 1 in 1 hour of walking). Blindingly beautiful.

I actually wrote that post around 9 am. Had to leave here with Molly because of housekeeping...stopped by the Mers...you know what happened next. ;-) A one hour walk over to the scene of the fire. Molly is bushed and I am going to the beach! :clap_1:

I was there in PC Saturday and Sunday. Went to the State Park and saw mega jellyfish. They were the cannonball ones though that DONT sting. But they were bunches of them. Walked over the dune and into the Gulf. More jellies there too. No one both days i was there, got stung as far as i know. Temps were very warm and i was surprised at how many people were there. I was also a little worried about the jellyfish. But with all those kids in the water no one screamed of being stung. So i guess the info i got was right. They had no tenacles and was like a ball of (sorry about the descrition) SNOT. No flags were flying to warn then.

JB, I'm not sure what happened, but all of a sudden, the Gulf is filled with June Grass. You might better cancel the trip. :roll::rotfl: I promise the photo is not doctored. (insert lying smilie here)
