Beachgoers on Florida’s Emerald Coast are being warned not to enter the water because of an influx of jellyfish, which in turn has attracted an abundance of rare pink meanies.
Purple flags, which inform the public that dangerous marine life has been spotted, have flown for 46 straight days, and more than 100 jellyfish stings have been reported in the past 40 days, though many more likely have gone unreported, according to WEAR-TV.
