A jet skier missing for eight hours in Queensland’s Moreton Bay has been found, as Brisbane wakes to a heavy blanket of fog on the Friday public holiday.
Police confirmed the man had been located “safe and well” near the Caboolture River, just before 7am on Friday morning, having spent the night stranded on his jet ski in the water.
Police were alerted at 10.40pm on Thursday night that the man had not returned from jetskiing, and that his vehicle and trailer were still at the boat ramp car park.
A multi-agency land, sea and air search was launched with Polair and QGAir Rescue 500 helicopters, as well as water police currently searching.
It continued into Friday morning amid heavy fog conditions.
It comes as Bureau of Meteorologist Shane Kennedy said the city could see fog hang around for a few more hours.
Mr Kennedy said it would fine up to a mostly sunny public holiday, with temperatures expected to reach a maximum of 26 degrees in Brisbane, a few degrees above the average before temperatures drop again tomorrow.
“There is a (cold) change on the way tomorrow … there’s a fairly strong trough system that will sweep across the south east,” he said.
“There will be a cloud build up overnight with some patchy light rain. There’s a change of gusty thunderstorms on Saturday afternoon.
“It should be a dry and sunny Sunday.”
More to come.
