Geez! give the guy a break!
Tony, the flow is picking up slightly at LR but nowhere near its
historical average. It's an easy swim for almost anyone to the dome
room; we did a dive there a couple weeks ago to the end of the
backmount Harper tunnel & back, up the Merry-Go-Round to the deep
section jump, and out through the Serpentine and hit deco just a
couple hundred pounds under 3rds on 104's at 3400, swimming.
   Peacock has been quite blue, but the steps at Orange grove still do
not have final approval, and as far as I know are still not open to
diving.
   One more thing, there have been LARGE numbers of divers at these
sites. there were 8 other people in the basin when we did LR, mostly
students, so it was very dusty.=20
   Think about Manatee Springs, I was there a week ago Monday, quite
Blue, some particulate, and tho the flow is higher at Friedman's than
LR, still very swimmable.
   The lettuce at Catfish has been killed off, back to minimal
duckweed, and on Monday afternoon, we were the only people in the
park.. not the only divers, the only people.
  If anyone else has a more current report, feel free to share.
  Hope you have a good weekend
