Anyone going to be in Coz week of 10/12 and have any thoughts on the weather?

[Quicksilver II]

Hey Coz Pros,

I'm booked for 10/12 - 10/19 and a little concerned about the weather. How bad is this weather forecast for a week of diving compared to the typical Oct/Nov? I know a lot of places can say T-Storms every day but they end up blowing through pretty quick and it's NBD.

I can reschedule for a few hundred bucks. I'm going solo and only there to dive, so it would double suck if I was stuck in my room.

Edit: I think I'll risk it. You are all correct, forecasts 10 days out is a guess at best. I'm just so stoked for the trip I got a little worried seeing the forecast.

Also, if anyone else is going to be there and wants to to grab dinner/drinks with a rando and talk diving, drop me a PM. I always enjoy making new friends and it's nice to share a meal when on a solo trip. I'm staying at Iberostar but diving with Aldora.

Thanks for the reality check on the weather!

We are heading down there the same time. Hoping for the best! Any lo al knowledge out there?

I don't know where the forecast came from but predicting weather 1 to 2 weeks out doesn't work well anywhere. In my experience here, most of the services don't do that well anyway. There are no major disturbances in the area now but , again, 1 to 2 weeks out doesn't mean much. Even your source just says thunderstorms so they should pass.
When we traveled here as tourists, those forecasts would not have stopped us.
We have had worse weather later in the year with hurricanes in the past so rescheduling may or may not be better.
I think the fourth column is some attempt at heat index but I have not seen it that high at 112F. It has been humid.
Predicting flash floods on the 16th? That is one powerful cristal ball.

that's the "feels like" temp at 89degrees with 99% humidity and over an inch of rain

Oh, well, then. I am from south Louisiana, so that's no big deal.

I ignore the weather forecasts and, instead, focus on the wind forecast. Anything higher than 20+ kts can be a problem, depending on direction.
