I dove the ramp this past weekend. I was in a 3mm full and was kind of over dressed to 90'. I am headed to the wall today. I will pay better attention to the temperature and let you know.
I will look at my computer when I get home tonight and give you some temps. I have been diving to 80' for a month and a half with nothing but a bathing suit and a rashguard top. Anything past 80' a full 3mil and hood would be recommended at minimum. If you are looking to go deeper than 130', 5mil and hood. Will give you some exact temps later tonight.

Went to the wall today. Computer was showing 66 at 105'. The surface is in the 80s. The vis sucked between 60 and 70, but once you got below it, it opened up nicely. I wore just a 7mm farmer john because we were supposed to go deeper but my buddy turned the dive early. I was comfortable and would have been fine in a full 3mm.
83 @ surface, 64 @ 145'. Depends on the dive you will be doing, I would suggest a full 3mm and hood if you plan on doing any depth above 80'. If diving above 80', depends on you, I would just wear a shirt skin and bathing suit or a thin shorty if I were you.
