I saw a documentary about it once. In some places, ice crystals form in the air and drop down to the ground. Super creepy.What is this "winter" everyone is talking about?
Upper or lower?72f is my limit
As long as the air is below some 15-17 degrees (C), a drysuit is strongly recommended. The SI becomes so much more comfortable.i dive wet 9 months out of the year, and only dive dry as others have said in the winter, when the air is frigid.
I like to dive Hawaii in the winterWhat is this "winter" everyone is talking about?
I would repeat my suggestion to start with a reputable organization and offer surface ice rescue first.Our community's local high school cancelled their regular winter sports seasons this year and the building's AD (Athletic Director) wants to try and offer some things to keep the kids active (but in an individual or socially distanced way, of course!)
