You shouldn’t do any serious swimming for at least an hour after eating but that long ago turned into staying out of the water for an hour.Today’s news (smh) has an expert saying heavy rain (100mm +), added with the warm water conditions, is equivalent to “throwing burley or chum into the water”. The Bull Sharks come in closer to shore. Those conditions were met for the two worst attacks of the recent 4, plus the Port Macquarie attack.
The Bull Sharks stay close to shore in the harbour for up to 7 days after the heavy rain. Water conditions at Parramatta (way up, Parramatta River becomes or feeds the Harbour) are like “swimming in a latte”.
Lost the article, but this one is similar. Typed stuff out above as it may be paywalled.
Why sharks and humans crossed paths so often this week
After an unprecedented spate of shark attacks, experts beg bathers to avoid muddy waters after rains.www.smh.com.au
So our elders were correct about not swimming after heavy rain. They also told us to stay out of the surf at dawn and dusk as it was feeding time. Oh, and “you can’t swim for an hour after eating”… which of the 3 may be the old wife’s tale.
The Florida keys. The south Texas coast.
Egad! Those reissues are $3500 at CME. GC has an old one like his for 1K. It’s looking a little rough.
I can vouch for southern FL since 1977, but the panhandle(AKA south AL)has already had some. Which is why I don't go up thataway.
Well...I love devilled eggs anyway. Now if that was something like deep fried pork belly...MMM!
OK, cool. There weren't no way to do that back then-and since I no longer have the 66 EB-3, I don't need to 'search'.
Does/did my hot tub* count? I certainly drank in there.
*it 'died' so now it's a not tub.

Good thing we only have prehistoric six-gill and seven-gill sharks in Puget Sound. They stay way, way down in the depths when they are adults. Small juveniles might come up to where a really deep diver might see one. But that's it. No bull sharks around here, or anything else especially scary.Today’s news (smh) has an expert saying heavy rain (100mm +), added with the warm water conditions, is equivalent to “throwing burley or chum into the water”.

It snows in Hawaii on top of the taller mountains. Those are a whole lot taller than you would expect. My wife and I went up Haleakalā last month, and it was really cold at the top, colder than it was in Seattle.

Yes, and a coffee growing region in Costa Rica. They stopped exporting from that co-op…at least officially.
