Figured I would post the current port Captain's port status message.

"Good morning to the entire maritime community of Cozumel.
Cold Front Number 23 entered the Gulf of Mexico today and is expected to affect our jurisdiction in Cozumel beginning early tomorrow, Friday, January 13. The wind will begin to feel from the Northwest with fresh speeds of 12 to 14 km/Hr, but as the morning progresses, after noon the wind will increase its speeds reaching 25 Km/Hr and gusts that can reach 30 Km/Hr .
If the forecasts continue like this, the Port will be closed for navigation for small boats starting at 12:00.
Everyone is informed to take extreme precautions and prevent unnecessary risks.

*Let's safeguard human life at sea, and take care of our activities and sources of income.*"
 
At least they are aiming to get in the morning dive trips.
 
Port closed this morning also. Yesterday we switched from twilight dives to morning and got 2 nice dives in before the port closed.

When the front passed through Austin the wind event was short lived. I hope it is the same for Cozumel.

Looks like maybe mid day tomorrow for reopening.

In MPH it doesn't look to bad, I think tomorrow morning it may open. If it does it will be bouncy getting back on the boat, wouldn't be very good conditions for handling large cameras or lingering at the ladder.

Then again in Knots it looks even better
