Global sea surface temperatures for April and May were the highest on record for those calendar months in a series stretching back to 1850, according to the Met Office - WeatherCee
Regular sea swimmers know that when the sea is getting warmer, it means a return of jellyfish like the Lion's ManeGlobal sea surface temperatures for April and May were the highest on record for those calendar months in a series stretching back to 1850, according to the Met Office.The temperature rise in the North Atlantic in May was record-breaking.
The sea is particularly warm off the UK's east coast from Durham to Aberdeen, and off north-west Ireland.I ventured back into the North Atlantic at Portstewart in June for the first time this year.I thought, 'Tell my butt cheeks that'.The maximum air temperature in Northern Ireland usually occurs in July whereas sea temperatures are at their warmest in August and September.
Luckily Irish waters are not home to the most dangerous jellyfish known - the Box jellyfish - which is common in Australia. Jellyfish stings in Ireland are not usually life threatening but can be very painful.Brushing against tentacles can cause the release of these stingers which contain venom. Swimmers though should beware the Lion's Mane, which is a brownish colour and its relative, the Blue jellyfish.Dr Brown, who has more than 50 years experience in his field, also spotted moon jellies in Sweden
