You know you're a COLDWATER diver when....

When the water reaches 50F and you figure summer is finally here.

You know you are a cold water diver when
... you carry extra lead to be able to put more gas in the suit
... you start to consider body fat as a Good Thing
... you know the one-finger-only version of all dive signs
... you are cold and you want to jump in to get warm
... it's warmer at the bottom

... when a chainsaw is an essential piece of dive gear ...

but a manual saw keeps you warm

You show up at the dive site already in your drysuit underwear You have to fold the seats back in your hatchback because your drysuit cannot fold until it thaws out You smile when "normal" people complain about ice cream headaches

When both you and your son are disappointed that it's too warm to snow for your first 'Santa Dive'.
5°C air temp and 6°C water temp (43°F).
