Good to see you again! I would totally be in, but me and Sillygrendel will just be getting back from Bonaire on the 10th and I dare say we will be dived out for a couple days...

Have fun though!

I should be there. Been out of the water since Thanksgiving and am breaking out in a rash!

I believe Mark Little will be coming along with me as well. Who else will turn off football for a day and get wet?

Thanks for the info on Mt. Storm. I am having withdrawal symptoms and the idea of a warm water dive in January is appealing!

My buddy and I have been contemplating going to Mt Storm for a while. However, we're both cold wimps. Is there any way to predict the water temperature? I understand it varies from 95-65 degrees depending on the season and also, unfortunatley, depending on how many reactors are running.

In the winter figure on 60-65. If ity is a very bad winter and half of the plant is shut down it may drop to mid 50s (like last year).

Bigger issue is the surface weather. It changes often and dramatically. Check and watch the 5 day forcast the week before you go. Last year we went up Saturday and Sunday one weekend. Saturday was mid 50s & sunny. Sunday was high 20s, strong wind and 8" of snow! Water was 65 both days.
