Peacock Conditions???

I know this question has been asked several times already about the conditions at Peacock and Little River so I apologize about the repetitiveness of the question.
I am planning a trip down June 19th through the 24th and am a bit concerned if these systems would be ready to dive then.
If someone could look into the future for me and let me know I would appreciate it.:yawinkle:

Thanks,
Jason

I heard on the radio that gypsies are back in town here and to beware. If I run into one with her ball in hand, I'll ask for you. :smt079

While "Me" is probably right, the odds are fairly good that they will be "divable", but with less vilibility than usual. Watch for updates as the time gets closer.

If someone on here has the ability to "look into the future" please send me a PM because I'd like a few stock market tips and the winning lottery and Power Ball numbers.

Jason,

For $20, I will tell you the truth. I will look into the future and talk to the cave god... if I'm wrong then I will refund your money...You have got nothing to lose...

Deal ?

P.S. I don't have access to the stock market god nor the lottery one...

I started cave diving in the 1990s, and this was a given: it rains in March, and the caves are undivable in April and part of May. By June, things are back to normal.

We had five straight years in the early 2000s where it didn't happen (they call it a 100-year drought), so newer cave divers think the sky has fallen. But to me it's just business as usual. I don't think we have anything to worry about concerning the July 4 Social, and the time period you're talking about is just a couple of weeks earlier.

(As usual, this advice is worth exactly what you're paying for it.)

I heard that there are other caves than Little River and Peacock?

I know there are but I started sidemounting and just wanted to go into the systems that I was most familiar and comfortable with for the first time in the caves.

Good plan, but Devil's Eye will work for that too :-)

You won't go wrong with KO, BRK.B (or .A for that matter), and SPY. Steady performers, great names and businesses, and SPY is the SP500 index. KO is a great buy right now. BRK.B is a good buy with excellent growth, it's up from the bottom over the past month, but it's not at the top. It's a long way from there. SPY is....well it's SPY.

These won't make you rich over night, but you'll be able to sleep at night, and they can make you rich over the years.

Back to normal do you mean open with minimal visibility,or open with 100+ ft viz. I am banking the first one will be the answer.

I think he meant "were back to normal" back in the '80s. The problem now is the river was really low when the flood came, so a *lot* more river water went into the system. I agree, viz won't be back to normal for a couple of months.

Well I took the dogs for a walk to see for myself on Saturday Morning...

We put on plenty of OFF and headed out with an escort of very upset mosquitoes.
(no bites)

I could see down at least 10 ft maybe 15ft in Orange grove, not a duckweed in sight.
There was still some flow between cisteen and OG.

At P1 I could see down some 4 ft or so but spent most of the time trying to stop the dogs
from jumping in for a swim. There was still an obvious flow coming out.

while a little tannic the water was clean, is seemed to me that it won't be long before they are diveable.

Which way does the water flow when this happens - toward OG or toward Cisteen? I've never been there when the water was that high.
