Sunday, weather was not so good.. Seas picked up, cloudy, rained on
the way back in, current picked up, etc..
Water temp is around 72 degrees. a 5mm will do, with a hood...
I wore a dry suit and a hood and I was comfy..
Just telling you what I went through this weekend down there...
Have fun...
Lars, Thanks a lot for the update on the weather situation. I'm hoping it gets better. I had heard through this and other boards that Florida diving might be a little tough in February. I was planning to wear a 6.5 mm shortie (no hood). Any other suggestions would be great. Who did you dive with?

Thanks again!
