Isolated Thunderstorms??

[runway1]

Going to Nassau 24th-31st. Weather says 30%-60% chance of "isolated thunderstorms".

Anybody experienced this? Do these come and go or do they come and come again? How do the dive boats react to rain days?

The just come and go....rain doesn't last long. Boats will stay out usually

Do they usually enter the water while raining? Curious because, being a socal diver, rain is an affront to a civilized existence. We almost go into a panic, Marshall Law, deploy National Guard and all. We're thinking of passing legislation to eliminate it all together.

Of course, then we would have to triple water bills to compensate - oh wait - they already did that.

Rain doesn't make any difference.

We were planning on getting wet anyway!!

Maybe, but it kills the sandwiches on deck.:11doh:

I was wondering the same. I'm going on a blackbeards trip in early June. From what I've heard most storms just pass by. Hope you have a good trip! Pictures and trip report (Including weather) would be nice!

Exactly! Can't worry about what's out of our control. Trip will be awesome!

I wouldn't worry about it. Keep your dry stuff in a dry bag in case one passes over during your dive because it's no fun coming up and wondering why your towel is wet but the sky is sunny

We were diving in Mexico a few years ago and a water spout passed by but wasn't close to us. I'm thinking "Hey look a freaking TORNADO of water and the boat crew isn't concerned" LOL!
