Okaloosa and Walton sheriffs caution beachgoers against handling washed ashore marijuana. Officers say possession charges apply if found, with trafficking if large quantities are sold or transported. Observers note past seizures and the coast’s occasional weed washes up during harvest season.

Appraisals Delay State's Grayton Dunes Purchase
State move to acquire Grayton Dunes faces delays as appraisals remain unapproved for cabinet consideration. DNA sources place Grayton sixth on a 26 parcel list with expectations for two appraisals by week’s end, then a month for review and Cabinet submission. The plan ties to a $200 million state program with other top parcels listed and awaiting appraisal clearance.
