*** Forecast - Our water temperature forecast
Actual nearshore water temperatures may fluctuate by several degrees from the reported values, especially following heavy rainfall or extended periods of strong winds. Certain wind patterns can cause colder, deeper waters to rise and replace the sun-warmed surface water, leading to noticeable variations.
Our forecast is based on a proprietary mathematical model that considers real-time water temperature changes, historical trends, key weather patterns, wind strength and direction, and air temperature specific to each region. Additionally, we incorporate data from other resorts to enhance accuracy.

Location & Local Information
Plauen is a city located in the Free State of Saxony, Germany, specifically situated in the Vogtland (an area known for its picturesque hilly landscape and architectural attractions) and lies on the White Elster River. This river stretches approximately 257 kilometers and is one of the major water bodies in the city. The river's water temperature varies, particularly influenced by the seasons and weather conditions.
Typically, during the peak of summer, water temperatures rise. Nonetheless, the White Elster River is not famous for swimming due to its chilly temperature even in summers and the river's flow, which may be fast depending on the season and weather conditions. Moreover, the river's water quality is often compromised due to contaminants from industrial activities in the area, which doesn't make it the ideal spot for swimming. It is recommended to partake in swimming activities in dedicated pools, lakes, or areas where water quality and safety measures are routinely assessed and regulated.
