Mukilteo last night was about 4-5 ft down to 30, where it cleared up a bit but it was still pretty bad down to 125'.

Saturday at Redondo was not very good. First dive it was 1-3' down to 40'. Got gradually better and cleared up to 5-10' after about 60'. That wasn't too bad. Second dive we never went deeper than 60' but up to that depth the viz never got better than 3' and probably was closer to 1'. If you didn't constantly watch your buddy, they disappeared. We called the second dive after about 25 minutes. Just wasn't worth it.
