FYI cold water in WPB

[jet126]

Please keep us posted. Diving tomorrow AM - not sure with whom (it's a surprise!) and have been getting reports of cold thermo off Boca - but nothing up north in Jupiter.

I'm soooo confused! Do I wear the 1mm - 3mm or 5mm?

LOL

Rae -
I'm going Sunday morning out of WPB. Unless I hear otherwise I'm splitting the difference: wearing my 3 and bringing a 3mm vest just in case. I was cold in my 1mm w/ vest yesterday at BHB and I refuse to wear my 5mm in August.
Have fun!

I'm going to pack my lavacore just in case. I only have a 3mm, but my 3mm with lavacore is pretty steamy. I also have a lavacore hood, which is usually too warm to wear at BHB.

Is it warming up? Maybe it is. Gazebo was 79 degrees and Black Condo was 78 degrees yesterday morning with a minimal south current. I'm wearing my 5 again today, an hour plus drifting in the high 70s is not all that warm.

Is this type of thermocline common for southern florida in August?
