Hello everyone

[fsudiver]

Hi everyone. I have been hearing about this forum for a long time, and have even visited before, but I finally decided to join. I am trying to find out how visibility is in the Gulf- especially near Panama City- following Hurricane Dennis. I will surf around, but if you know anything about the vis, please let me know.

Hi fsudiver, and welcome to SB, great place to find out things like how's the vis at...
But Since this is an introduction forum you may want to post your question here.

Gulf Conditions 5/17/05

Conditions overall are much better than expected after Hurricane Dennis.

PC Barge 20' vis
3 Barges 15-20'vis
Pensacola Bay 15' vis
Water Temps 82

Lots of Fish - Grouper did not come in as close as they normally do after a tropical storm, but have been plentiful on the offshore sites and natural bottom areas. Lots of BIG snapper have come in close, as have large schools of amberjack.
(This was taken from the MBT forum out of Pensacola)...............

Your best source of info would be your local dive club forum, and you should get to know your neighbors there anyway. Great bunch of divers, friendly folks, new dive buddies. :nod: See you around the forums...
