Am I going nuts? Not at all! Click here to find out for yourself!

Here's what Franky from NOAA's National Weather Service informs us on how the snorkeling conditions should get even better by tomorrow, and some important tips on how to survive these radical snorkeling conditions! ;)

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
MOST FLOOD DEATHS OCCUR IN VEHICLES. NEVER DRIVE INTO AREAS WHERE
WATER COVERS THE ROADWAY. FLOOD WATERS ARE USUALLY DEEPER THAN THEY
APPEAR. JUST ONE FOOT OF FLOWING WATER IS POWERFUL ENOUGH TO SWEEP
VEHICLES OFF THE ROAD. WHEN ENCOUNTERING FLOODING ROADS MAKE THE
SMART CHOICE...TURN AROUND...DONT DROWN.
EXCESSIVE RUNOFF FROM HEAVY RAIN WILL CAUSE FLOODING OF CREEKS AND
SMALL STREAMS. SIGNIFICANT FLOODING OF URBAN AREAS...INCLUDING ROADS
AND UNDERPASSES IS ALSO EXPECTED. DO NOT DRIVE THROUGH FLOODED AREAS.
EXCESSIVE RUNOFF FROM HEAVY RAIN WILL CAUSE FLOODING OF CREEKS AND SMALL STREAMS...AS WELL AS SIGNIFICANT FLOODING OF COUNTRY ROADS.
DO NOT DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE INTO AREAS WHERE THE WATER COVERS THE
ROADWAY...INCLUDING UNDERPASSES. THE WATER MAY BE TOO DEEP TO ALLOW
VEHICLES TO CROSS SAFELY...OR THE ROADWAY MAY BE UNDERMINED.
