    Everything is looking good. Not much rain lately. The Santa Fe is even clear.

    JB is clear, flow is light, but present. Dove last night and our exit took 1/2 as long as our ingress, and 1/2 as much gas too.

    Interesting, I wonder if flow went up since Sunday. There was hardly any flow over the weekend.

    I wonder how long it takes for rain to have an effect on the flow. Hasn't there been a few little showers in Marianna recently?

    We've had some rain, but by no means enough to cause a significant increase in flow.

    Beginning of the week saw some rains.

    It was by no means strong flow, but the same(or less) effort put forth as we went in, took us twice the distance on the way out. We still made 4th T on backgas.

    When I dove at Jackson Blue on Friday and Saturday, conditions were great. Flow is really down and viz is wonderful.

    Just did the P1 to Cisteen to Olsen to P1 circuit at Peacock today, Sunday, and the viz was outstanding. really fun dive.
