Low to almost no vis can be common in our local mud hole when the lake starts turning over. I know for many divers it's creepy. If I'm with an experienced dive buddy, it's a good time to practice skills. Occasionally it will be so bad I can't see the glow of my computer. For me that can be disorienting, since I can't tell if I'm swimming down toward the riverbed. When that happens I stop for a moment to take a couple of deep breaths, then slowly start fingerwalking until I can see my computer and compass.
