It's about 77 on the deeper sites and a few degrees cooler on the shallower stuff.
My dive out of Miami was canceled this morning, most likely based on the forecast but the captain just called and has reassessed the conditions will run the trip this afternoon.
Exactly! Forecasts are just that, only forecasts. And, they can be wrong. It's a shame when people cancel their dive plans based upon inaccurate forecasts, and end up missing out on beautiful conditions. Sometimes it's better to make a dockside decision, rather than cancel a day ahead of time.
Well, to answer your question, the technical term is "$#!~ out of luck". There are, of course, many more casually colloquial terms but this would necessarily lead to a coarsening vulgarization of this thread and probably a great deal of internecine member bashing.If they go out of business, where would we be??
