" 'Today, you may notice our lifeguards flying a purple flag alongside the green flag,' the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/OgunquitME" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OgunquitME</a> Fire Department said in a social media post. 'This indicates the presence of marine life hazards—specifically an increase in lion’s mane and moon jellyfish in our local waters, as well as at other beaches along the Maine coast.'"While most jellyfish encounters are not harmful, officials said there have been 'a few instances of jellyfish stings locally.' Lion’s mane jellyfish, in particular, can deliver painful stings that remain potent even after the jellyfish wash ashore."In <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/EliotME" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#EliotME</a>, police issued a warning after recent sightings near Dead Duck at the Eliot Boat Basin. The department urged caution, especially for families with dogs." 'Dogs are especially at risk,' the Eliot Police Department said. 'Curious sniffing or contact can lead to serious injury or illness.'"Officials recommend keeping pets and young children away from the water’s edge if jellyfish are visible. In addition to avoiding contact, beachgoers are encouraged to report sightings to lifeguards."At <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WillardBeach" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WillardBeach</a> in <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SouthPortlandME" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SouthPortlandME</a>, a nearly five-foot-wide lion’s mane jellyfish was spotted over the weekend, according to the city’s parks and recreation department. Lifeguards have been trained to safely remove jellyfish that wash ashore using tools like shovels." 'If you see one, don’t touch it,' the city advised in a public post. 'They sting. Observe it—they’re interesting to watch and pretty too.'"Those interested in helping marine researchers track <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/JellyfishSightings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#JellyfishSightings</a> can report <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/observations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#observations</a> through regional <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CitizenScience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#CitizenScience</a> platforms or agencies like the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GulfOfMaineResearchInstitute" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GulfOfMaineResearchInstitute</a> or <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BigelowLaboratory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BigelowLaboratory</a> for Ocean Sciences."In the meantime, officials are reminding visitors to enjoy Maine’s beaches safely and stay informed."Source: <a href="https://www.newscentermaine.com/article/news/local/public-safety/spike-in-jellyfish-sightings-prompts-coastal-safety-warnings-across-southern-maine-beach-summer/97-b79da2cb-bfc0-49ed-8dcf-712d208c384e" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.newscentermaine.com/article/news/local/public-safety/spike-in-jellyfish-sightings-prompts-coastal-safety-warnings-across-southern-maine-beach-summer/97-b79da2cb-bfc0-49ed-8dcf-712d208c384e</a><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GlobalWarming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GlobalWarming</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WarmingOceans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WarmingOceans</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClimateDiary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ClimateDiary</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/MaineClimateDiary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MaineClimateDiary</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/MarineLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MarineLife</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ChangingOceans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ChangingOceans</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/OceansAreLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OceansAreLife</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/OceanTemperatures" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OceanTemperatures</a>
