I am planning to dive the weekend of April 10 and 11. I am open to either Clear Springs Scuba Park in Terrell or Blue Lagoon in Huntsville. Depending on who want to join us?
It would even be nice if an instructor would help me get Meagan (Tiny Texas Cowgirl) certified at the same time. We would get her classroom work done before we arrive there, so all we have to do is get wet.
Let’s make it a weekend of BBQ and diving.

Don't know how cold the NTX locales will be in mid April but I'm sure it's too cold for me until I get a drysuit. Then again, I'm a southerner in Texas and not a Canuck in Texas

Hope you find someone and Meagan can get certified too.

When you need to push ice chunks out of the way it is cold. Anything less than that is diving temp. Of course, I have dove with ice chunks too so I may not be the right person to ask.LMAO this is Texas, it doesn't get cold... Of course, as I right this it is about 32 degrees outside, but that it's cold, right Jo? But any way, just thought I would throw out there, that April in Tx can be VERY irregular, and so far, everything about our weather has been weird this year, HELLO, snow in march? ARE YOU FREAKIN KIDDING ME???

I had 35 dives when I started in Marsa Alam and was taken on a series of advanced dives by the DM's when they found out I was trained in Canadian waters. On that same trip there was a Rescue diver with a claimed 200 dives that you would not want to take in a kiddie pool.

I haven't dove with ice chunks but I'd regularly put my feet in glacier water as a kid... the "creek" separated us from most of where I wanted to go in civilization via the public bus stop a couple miles away, the most important of those places being the mall and any swimming pools with water deep enough and warm enough to swim in . Guess I'm a poor judge of what's cold too... of course I never SWAM in the glacier water...When you need to push ice chunks out of the way it is cold. Anything less than that is diving temp.

this quarry usually has at least 3 thermoclines, it's 60' deep and is spring fed...so I'd expect the bottom to be in the 40's

Diving in warm, clear waters gives you DIFFERENT experience than diving in cold, bleak waters, not worse or better experience than cold water diving.
Let's not denigrate the quality of diver that can (and does) emerge from diving solely in clear, warm waters! We've got some fabulous warm water divers right here at SD!
