Quarry yesterday was 5c at depth, sea today 7c.
All in all warm and comfy underwater although got cold today on the RIB going back in.
With a drysuit theres no real issue.

Quarry vis 7-8m, sea vis about 0.5m and totally black. Torches needed to read gauges and another dive-by-touch around a wreck. Still fun though :)

Generally water temp < 21c im in a drysuit. 22c+ im in a 5mm full length. Never less.
 
41 F in a lake in southern Oregon. shorts and a wrist band got a little to warm. Might have to go to a little lighter suit in these warm waters....
 
I havn't checked recently but it's probably around 7C. The air is a nice 15 C though. I need to jump in the water to cool off after getting into two 6.5mm wetsuits.
 
Nova Scotia Atlantic- 53F,+13C. I use the 7 mil year round. We usually peak about 56F and low is 33-34F (+1.5C), but that means 20 mins. dive at most. I've been in Vortex-did about 3 hours of classes with the 7 mil without the bottoms, hood or gloves. They always say it's 68F. My gauge read 63F.
 
So. California 64 F. dry suite still, all depends on the depth. I like to stay warm to vent out nitrogen from the limbs unless your doing a 2 to 1 saturation w/ nitrox. lates
