Hi,
I was getting my obligatory First Dive of the Year over with, but I'd forgotten my boots. (man that was dumb, i guess that was my obligatory First Aborted Dive of the Year) anyway since I had my camera I thought I would take a picture of the water line out by "Two Cows".
this is the water level before the rain started a few days ago:

So I came back 24 hours later, with ALL of my gear this time, and took another picture for comparison. I couldn't believe how much the water had risen in one day.
this is the water level as of exactly 24 hours later:

my car would have been underwater. Notice the white lines a long side the road in after.png.
MY FIRST 'ROAD DIVE':
this is my usual dive spot and I did manage to get in one dive. I went down the road, following the yellow dividing lines all the way down. After 11 minutes of this I decided I would go back and the max depth was only 11 feet. The water temperature was 53 degrees F. I could only see about one foot in front of me. I'm not surprised in the slightest this is actually what I expected. Only the water seemed warmer than I thought it would be.
Anyway, I'm glad to have Dive 1 for 2005 over with and am ready for some real diving at La Jolla Shores.
