    Water under the ice is pretty constant around 28 to 30 degrees F.

    The water was the same themperature than the water I used to dive in my place, 30 to 32 F and no, I didnt get cold. Divers was wearing different kind of drysuit and undergarment so from I remember : Whites Fusion + Weezle Extreme + base layer, Atlan neo 6 mm + Whites MK2, Bare Trilam + Whites MK2 + base layer, etc. As you can see, different configuration.
