MORE UGLY COMING

I was just looking at Cozumel webcams; it looked and sounded pretty windy.

But that is absolutely no indication of how it will be at 8am tomorrow - norte's leave as fast as they come in. I'd still give it a 50/50 chance for tomorrow based on this

Are those are meaning wind out of the North, North West??

Yes Chuck, Direction is mostly more a factor than wind strength and North North west is ugly

I am in the states at the moment, but is port closed today ? Was just curious.

Many years ago when I primarily dove weekends, Sunday was way more likely to be closed than any other day. It seemed like it was because of the fact that Sunday morning always seems to follow Saturday night (as opposed to any wind/wave conditions).

Interesting. I would have thought North/Northeast would be the worst. Wouldn't that be directly against the current flow?

According to Chrisi's website, it is closed today. I don't know how actively she keeps up with it, though.

Port is open. There is a fishing tournament today and dive boats are going out too. It is rough out there...

The current is not a factor; it's when the wind is blowing toward the NW coast of the island. That makes the seas rough on the Cozumel side of the channel where the dive sites and unsheltered boat docks are.

Yeah. It sucked.
