Water temp is between 79 & 80 F.. Viz varies on a daily basis. What is was a week ago has no real bearing on what it will be when you're here. Viz will vary between 60 ft to 120 ft depends on where you dive, winds, currents etc. All change on a daily basis.

Was there 7-21 Feb. Temp was 81-82F and visibility varied greatly with sites...more so if the wind and waves have significant effect on sandy shallow areas. Normally, vis was better in deeper areas away from sandy flats. Enjoy.
First dive today. Water 81 on my computer. Vis was a little less then usual at about 50 to 60 feet. More surge too then I am use to at the Cliff. Made the viz a little worse in sandy shallow areas.

deedee and unc,
Weather sites make it look like it's windier than usual. Is that making the northern dive sites more preferable right now?

It's been rainy, showers on and off mixed with sun. Have dove Southern sites (Sweet Dreams was our most southern) the last 3 days and except for this afternoon, I wouldn't say it's been especially windy. It was pretty brisk today though. Surf was a bit more challenging at our most southern dives but still very mild current.
North and south the currents have been variable. The strongest current that we have encountered so far oddly enough was Sunday at Bari. Next dive that same day was Witch's Hut/Weber's Joy and there was very light current.
