Sounds like it's not only the ocean that's "relatively balmy" .... %^#

(My last dives, January 4 off Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.  Air temp 55 F,
water temp 40 F, 93 feet on the WASHINGTONIAN.  Two dives in a wetsuit.
Next dives will probably be April 5th, at Willow Springs quarry, PA.
I may try serious ice diving next year; now shopping for a dry suit.)
