Last weekend was bad. Even though it was expected for the so-called Dragon’s Tail to hit the East Coast, I did not expect it to hit as far south as Tioman. Ferry services were out until Saturday, and HB told me of people being stranded on Perhentian. I looked at the moon last night and I expect it to be at its waning quarter phase this Thursday. So currents should be okay again.
Looking at the latest NOAA pic above (as at 2222 UTC 24th Feb 08) there is a huge cloud cover blanketing all the way from Tioman to the Klang Valley. I expect Tioman to experience rain or thunderstorm today and tomorrow. And looking at the bigger picture (below) as the winds will be blowing from east to west, rain is to be expected over Tioman until Friday. So with rain, visibility will not be that great, but that is not going to deter me.
The rest of the gang to be led by Ridrahim will be joining me on Friday, I think, and in total about 20 odd divers will be flocking the same dive center, not inclusive of walk-in guests. Well, I am going to be busy doing UW photography.
Right now, I am going out to look for some screws and nuts for attachments, and then send the other notebook to install a new OS, then go hang out somewhere.
Tonight, I’ll have to dismantle my twin-set assembly, and go back onto single tank set.
