A purple flag is flying at Jacksonville Beach, indicating a dangerous marine life warning.

Jacksonville Beach lifeguards say it will be taken down tomorrow if jellyfish stings continue to decrease in number.

Both wind and currents are suspected to have brought the jellyfish to our beaches.

Yesterday, 14 stings were reported and 12 have been so far today.
