Last week, a dive shop posted on instagram that visibility was around 4 feet in the Fort Lauderdale area. I just went to Key Largo yesterday to the Spiegel Grove wreck at a depth of 70+ ft, and the visibility was around 35 ft or so.

Visibility off Pompano wasn't great but improving, Sunday was considerably better than Saturday, temperature 84 f. Zero damage to the 3rd reef at least not the couple of miles I saw.

Can usually expect a significant drop in viz for a good week after a storm like this. The impacts can be much greater though. Check out this article from Scuba Diving Magazine: How Hurricane Irma Radically Shifted South Florida Wrecks. Would love to hear from anyone who has seen structural changes in any of the wrecks in Broward and Palm Beach.
