No, tropical storms/hurricanes have occurred in every month of the year.  "Season" is just the peak time for them.  One year we ran out of names and had to use the Greek alphabet.  I think that year we had storms in April.

    The vis just gets better and better, can't believe it's the same ocean as last week. The sea are nearly flat the weather is hot an occasional cloud to make the sky look pretty, sheet, I have to go home on Saturday.

Yes, I do have the G10.  Fabulous pictures!  I can't wait to actually get to use it.  My last trip down to CCV, I blew my eardrum - poor camera was beached for the week!  BUT...... Dive Camp is coming!!!!  Very nice job on ALL the pics!  They're fabulous.  Thanks for taking the time to post them.

Well, it rained today. Mostly this morning, by noon it had quite and was just cloudy with occasional sun. Not bad at all. Looks like we might get out of here before the weather gets real bad. We saw a nurse shark today on Newmans, I tried to get my wife to get the big hook out of his mouth but she wasn't willing. Oh well, I here they rust out in a few days, kind of hard to believe but that's what one of the divemasters said.

Last dive day for us, we go home tomorrow. It's been a pretty good trip. We booked to weeks thinking that there would be a bunch of blue weather and frankly only the last couple days were rainy and not all the time. The rain came down in bucket fulls a couple times today. The Fire Dancers may have to cancel tonight.

Not until Nov. 30th is hurricane season over. (June 1st till Nov. 30th) But with only 9 named storms this year that is a sign that Globle Warming   is declining and an Ice Age is approaching.

Paul.....in that first photo with the whip coral, is that 2 baby squid? If so, I've never seen them that small!

Thanks for the daily reports and photos, it's helped with the withdrawals. Have a safe trip home.

Yes Dee, those were Squid. i was looking at the Whip Coral to find some of the green shrimp or else I would have never seen them. On a night dive I caught a peek at what I think is a baby Octopus but couldn't confirm it. i got one so so picture but it didn't hang around for a second for me to get it zoomed in.     
Fire Dancers were here last night. He has two girls whipping fire around now. His parting shot is all ways funny," I have the Hottest act in Roatan"
