Just toward the end of slack tide Friday we had a pretty nasty thunder and lightning storm move through.
I had been to the north of the little bridge when I noticed it was getting a bit dark so I started to make my way
back south toward the small bridge. Before I could get to the bridge I could actually see the lightning overhead.
I decided to hunker down under the bridge on the bottom for a bit then decided to surface while under the bridge
while the storm passed. There was a a couple divers under the same area as myself and another large group taking
cover under the bridge to the east a bit. Two fisherman in a small inflatable had the same idea. Actually had a good dive
till the weather changed but still got in over sixty minutes and was happy to get back to the parking area after the storm
subsided. Hogfish, rays, lionfish (scheduled to be expedited at a later date) and all the other usual subjects were out and
about.
