Scuba Gloves
I'm taking Scuba Diving classes, and we are going this weekend to the beach @ 7AM (Cold), should i be worried?

I have 7mm wetsuit, and shoes and gloves, and the head/Face Mask thing, but still... even when we were practicing in the heated pool it was a little cold at times.. and going that early, the temp outside is like in the 40's... I'm freaked out, i hate the cold!

I noticed you are from S.D. The water temp here off the Shores (where I presume your OW dives are) is 56 right now at 60'. You will not go any deeper. You will be kneeling in one place for the probably the second and third dives especially and may get a little chilled, but for the other two you will also do short "tours" so the movement will help keep you warm. As you will not be going too deep, it will not get much colder. Have a few jugs of boiling water in a cooler that you can pour down your wetsuit after dive #1. This will help to warm your core. Also a thermos of hot cocoa or coffee. Too, bring a few towels and warm clothes (pants, jacket or fleece and beanie cap...even gloves for after the dive). There are restrooms at the Shores to change in.

Remember that the pool is also cold because you were in there for hours barely moving and as you learned water cools the body much faster than air.

Have fun, relax! Barring rain, visibility has been great this week!

See you out there :-)

ps...for all those who say 7mm is thick, yes it is, but most divers here are diving Drysuits this time of year. We shore dive a lot so there is a fair amount of exposure to the cold air during the swim and walk. The 56 degrees is at 60'...it drops about 8 more at the next thermocline at about 80'.
