Standing in the rain outside of St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Cathedral on Saturday, Nik Gombos made a promise. “You watch,” he said. “It will rain on and off all morning, but when it’s time for the boys to dive, there will be blue skies and sunshine.” Rain may have dampened the start of Tarpon Springs’ 118th Epiphany celebration, the largest commemoration in the Western Hemisphere of Jesus .
