Anyone can call a dive at any time for any reason. This includes before the dive starts. If something doesn't seem right, if you have a sixth sense don't do it.
I'm writing this because in New England we have had two incidents one on Monday one on Tuesday. I do not know the details so I will not post without absolute facts. What is known is that on Monday a diver had to be pulled from the water, he was rescued successfully. On Tuesday a diver was found dead at the same dive site. Another diver took photo's of a popular dive site close by showing very rough entry/exit, he canned the dive without even gearing up.
We are land animals, breathing underwater is something we are not supposed to do. Technology lets us enjoy this sport we all love so much but we have to remember what are capable of and not push our limits. The fact that we are breathing underwater is in itself dangerous, it is up to us to mitigate the risk as best we can.
It does not matter the money, time, driving etc we do to go diving..... It's not worth your life.
Again if things don't look, feel, phase of moon isn't right, etc DON'T DO IT.
