I hate being the bearer of bad news.
In case no one has been watching the local weather lately, the wind has been from the west or south west all week, and has just dropped below 15 MPH today.........I think viz will be measured with a ruler, not a yardstick!

With that report, and Mote's knowledge of the area, we are going to have thumb this one people :sad: There won't be any diving to be had so we'd just be sittin' on the beach getting rained on.

 

[Zoomer]

I was afraid of this... maybe some other time?

 

[Upwelling]

I also had a bad "vibe" that this might happen -- at least we know about it now instead of at 5Am Saturday morning, though.

I realize this is last minute notice, and I hate to see events get cancelled, due to weather. Perhaps Reeldreams could stop by the beach tonite on his way home and give an "eyewitness" report. The wind has subsided since yesterday and I don't know how long it will take for the viz to clear. There will be an incoming tide all day Saturday which should help the viz some. It is possible that conditions could improve. That won't change the 60% chance of rain but I don't melt.

It's y'alls call, I'll be available again June 7th if you want to try and reschedule.

Gah. Damn.

Yeah, not so sure if we're gonna chance driving three hours and not being able to dive.

What say you, Naturewalker? Initiate plan B (diving Blue Springs here in C. Florida)?
