Would you dive with thunderstorms?

[Swimjim]

A thunderstorm on lake Michigan accompanied by high winds can ruin your whole day.  I've been caught out there and got hit.  Watching green water wash over the bow after it being calm is not my idea of fun.  If there are thunderstorms in the forecast I'd probably still go.  Forecasters put them in on warm summer days to cover their A**.  Just make sure to keep an eye on the sky.  If you see a purple line of clouds with big thunderheads coming your way, its best to head for shore NOW and dive or fish another day.
