Question Florida folks: What's your cold threshold?

70 is as low as I go. Anything colder - like a cold spot in the Santa Fe River and I get cold. In the 80's I am in board shorts, rashguard with a 1 mm vest. The vest is mostly to have something between me and my BCD. Anything below 80 and I am sharkskin, jacket, hood, pants.

water temperature below 72 degrees in in a dry suit with Fourth Element Arctic under garment. Of course these are cave dives lasting 90-120 minutes.

Maybe it's time for another ScubaBoard BHB megadive? Oh @Scuba_Jenny!

Oh wow! It's been a LONG time since we've had one of those. If I recall, it was the Saturday after Thanksgiving if the tide was good. But.. a summer one would be cool... erh, I mean Hot!
Just remember no MUR or REEB allowed at the park!

As for being cold, last summer when the water was over 85, I was in UV shirt and pants. This winter from January to a few weeks ago, I was in my 5mm. A couple of those dives in that time frame I was shaking cold when I got out. Thankfully I brought hot tea, and a gallon of hot water for a rinse.
Yes, I am one of those that get cold easily, I am also one of those that can do a 3 hr dive. Lot tougher to stay warm on those long dives.
