wb416:It was some of the worst "opening day" viz I've ever seen. Wasn't much greater than 20ft. Not sure what the deal was, but it was disappointing.
Maybe, rain?

That could be it... good chance since it was the highest water level I've ever seen at Whitestar (over 200 dives there since 1999).hoosier:Maybe, rain?
Steve_Dives:What was the water temperature?

hoosier:I think it is mainly due to a rain. The VIS is very sensitive to a rain, specially in mid-west.
The water temperature is the same all year around.
wb416:Not sure what you mean about the water temp... Whitestar can get pretty balmy above the thermocline in late summer.
