Another cloudy, humid and wet day is on tap for the Gulf Coast as another round of showers and thunderstorms drenches the region. Heavy downpours associated with the thunderstorms could lead to incidents of flooding, particularly across Louisiana and southern Mississippi. A vig- orous system will bring gusty winds and a wildfire threat from Arizona to North Dakota, while show- ers and mountain snow hit the Northwest.

With prices on the open market often reaching $125 a pound, the pull to the Sonoma and Mendocino county coastlines at the start of the season in April is strong. On Sunday, not even two weeks into the start of the abalone diving season, a group of 10 friends renting a vacation home near Cas- par Anchorage Bay in Cas- par, , set out to harvest the delicacy. Three of the men drowned, the first casual- ties of the season. The men were diving for the mollusks when they found themselves in rough waves and became trapped in the surf of a narrow channel between two rock outcroppings, Mendocino Fire Capt. Sally Swan said. Witnesses described seven- to eight-foot swells. It's not uncommon for people to travel for hun- dreds of miles each day to the rugged coast to go ab- alone diving and get their daily limit of three abalo- nes. But they are often in- experienced and don't as- sess the danger associated with the treacherous sport, experts said. "They're not going to go home empty-handed, so they make poor choices and dive without carefully evaluating the conditions, or worse yet, diving when the conditions are poor so they don't feel like they've wasted their time and gas money," said Chris Constan- tine, who publishes Califor- nia Diver Magazine. Scuba-diving tanks and gear are not permitted. Be- cause the water ranges be- tween 48 and 52 degrees year-round, a wetsuit, hood, boots and gloves are needed to keep warm. But neoprene suits are also very buoyant, so divers must wear a 20- to 30-pound weight belt to off- set that buoyancy, Constan- tine said. Low visibility in the wa- ter and sharks are other common dangers. Last June, an abalone diver fell to his death while climbing a steep cliff in Men- docino. The man had been diving for abalone when rough water may have pushed him and a friend into a cove not typically used by divers. Last Novem- ber, a diver died in the water off the Sonoma County coast when he stopped breathing. In May 2013, there were four deaths in eight days re- lated to the hunt for shell- fish off the coasts of Sonoma and Mendocino counties. What happened Sunday is not yet known as investi- gators continue their probe. An off-duty firefighter who was fishing nearby saw the men struggling in the water and called for help. Authorities have identi- fied the three men who died in the water as 49-year-old Tae Won Oh of Dublin, Cali- fornia and 49-year-old Hyun Kook Shin of Suwanee, Geor- gia. The third man, 53. from New Jersey, has been iden- tified, but his name was not released pending notifica- tion of his family.
