I can't imagine ever wearing 7mm in South Florida. Maybe a 5mm if there is a cold upwelling, but I've never worn more than a 3/2 in Jupiter WPB area. A few times in Fall/Spring diving I have been a little chilly, but never really cold.Heading down this weekend tring to get an idea on some temps? Heard of some reports of low 70's.

70 degree water sounds pretty good! I think I hit 68 once in cold upwelling in WPB and that was uncomfortably cold for my 3/2. I've not been diving in the deep winter months in Jupiter but I thought my 3/2 was adequate for November. I guess I prefer a little chill to more weight and being restricted in movement. [emoji6]Well I can't imagine not wearing a 7MM in the winter in Florida!!! I guess guys that live in the snow have more tolerance for cold!
