Excellent. Does Mary Jo still have Friday discounts?
Touch tables at the Seymour Center in Santa Cruz are still 50F which means ocean temps are about 48F lows at the surface (Our intake piping heats the water up by the time they reach our tanks).
Usually the tables are 54F to 60F.
Moderate wind is still a daily factor here and even heavier in Monterey, so I wouldn't say that viz is going to be great until the wind dies off. After that you might have a narrow window of great viz until the upwelling comes to shore and leads to a bloom of the plankton/algae variety.

Unless I do something embarrassing in which case I was nowhere near the Bay.

Yesterday had 40+ at Monastery. Planned for two dive today, but vis completely turned around. 20 at best but most places more like 15. The further out the worse it got. Just could not be motivated for a second dive at 46 degrees...thats Monterey for you.
Viz was approximately 5' at Erik's Pinnacle today :depressed::depressed::depressed:.
Slightly better offshore from Mcabee but only on the bottom. 10-15' approximately. It was extremely cold, my cpu said 48 but it felt even colder.

Ugh. I missed out on getting a drysuit to use tomorrow. That is going to be rough in a wetsuit for a cold wimp like me!
