So, how cold was it. . ?



Dianne and I had a decent dive at Upper Brewer's Mills this afternoon. The Sun was shining brightly and there was practically no wind. The water was clear, with viz of something like 20-30 feet and the current was manageable. We got just under 30 minutes in, exploring the depression South of the bridge after an expedition upstream.

But there was no concealing the air temperature of about -11C (12F). The picture shows my frozen suit standing up, almost unsupported, just minutes after exiting the water.
