Due to high number of phone calls I thought I'd post the info that the park is open, we've gotten over 6" of rain here, I'm sure that would add some milky effects near the sinks openings, no one has dove yet so I have no info on conditions inside. P1 has risen a few inches, looks better than it has in a long time, the Suwannee has to rise about 9' before it effects PSSP.
Thanks
Janet
Great news Janet, thanks!!

If the rain isn't pouring , the Beano and company will be at PSSP sometime on Sunday. I'm bringing the side-mount gang with me ( EEK ) :D

Janet, how are things looking at PSSP? Are there any forecasts for the river levels yet?
Thanks for always keeping us up to date! Much appreciated.

FYI: We dove Orange Grove yesterday (Distance Tunnel). The basin has about 0-5 feet of vis. Once we entered the cavern , it cleared up to about 20 feet. Once on the gold line , it got better the further we got into the system. The Flow was definately UP !!!! :D
