be too much snow. Even if there is snow on the ground it won't effect you underwater

its the getting out of the water that really gets to ya when its cold outside. I was glad to have three suits the last weekend we went diving. The drysuit does help also. Kystork has a drysuit now.

good 7 mil wetsuit will be ok for some winter dives if you can't afford a drysuit right now.......the 7 mill is cheaper and you can get a dive here and there to deal with the withdrawal of not diving for awhile. Also check with a local shop or join a dive club..sometimes they do pool sessions in the winter (our club does)...it keeps us nitrogen junkies going

i only have 2/3 mm suits

also there are no dive clubs around and the only one LDS is not having anything till April 2003 !!!!!!!!

Learn to use a dry suit and keep diving. We dive locally year round and it doesn't get good til the crowds thin.
