Channel 7 news is claiming a warning for South East Queensland.
Sounds like its only confirmed as far south as Fraser.

****!!!

No that's really bad. Imagine if they do migrate down to the NSW border. No sailing during stinger season for any of us .

...I suppose we could wear one of those smurf suits.

A friend, who is a member of the Manly Yatch Club, advised that there had recent sightings of Box Jellyfish in the Manly Marina. This soumded a little far fetched to me. Has anyone else heard this? Can anyone else confirm?
