Hey, that's great. Same as around here. The forecast is for the temp to get up to around 31 by Tuesday and some of the ice might be off by then so the water temp should be around 33 or 34 degrees. Can't wait.

It's times like these that make me wonder why my family left Northern New York and came to Florida 2 generations ago.

Today Air temp 80 Water temp 75. Seas a sporty and sloppy 3-4. Wind never did come around to SW. Stayed SE at 15-18. Viz was pretty good 50-60 ft. Much better than it has been. Hope the wind lays down. Lord knows you can't count on NOAA to forecast correctly.

In Jupiter/Juno: seas were about as flat calm as they can get in the winter. 73-74 degrees on the bottom: almost no current and about 65 feet of visibility. Lots of turtles, morays, tropicals, etc. One of the divers claimed to have encountered a hammerhead and bull but I only saw nurse sharks. Great day for diving with JDC!!!!

I did three dives today.
Pompano Drop Off, then the 30'-40' reef outside the Drop Off, and the 40'-60' contour.
A bunch of shorts, bagged a few bugs, 2 Hogs, and several Lion Fish.
40'-50' viz, 74f, no current.
Great day.

Might do it again tomorrow.

We had a gorgeous dive on the Skycliffe this morning. A huge Cubera snapper, jewfish, a perfect drop, no current, good viz, 71-74 degree water, and good divers on the boat, it doesn't get much better. And oh yeah, it was sharky as all get out. Bulls, black tips, reefies. They hung around for our entire dive staying close but never displayed any aggressive behavior.

Thank you Kevin and Wil at Underwater Explorers for a great dive.

Hi Brian,

Kev told me about your morning dive, I dived in the afternoon. It really was a nice weekend. Maybe I'll see you over President's weekend.

Good diving, Craig

Got in the water Sat & Sun. Saturday was great. Viz 70+ ft light current and flat seas. Water temp 74. Sunday wind picked up out of the north and it got a bit choppy. The overcast made for a gloomy dive, by nice none-the-less. Still can't believe I'm in 74 degree water in late Jan. Don't think I've ever bought fill cards in Jan. or Feb, but it looks like that's going to happen.

Looks like it's going to blow hard till thursday, and then nice again for the weekend.

With a mild winter shouldn't gas prices be lower?
