*** 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
Werdohl, situated in the North Rhine-Westphalia region of Germany, is a small city known for being nestled along the Lenne river. This river stretches some 130 kilometers northwest before joining the Ruhr River. While the water temperature of Lenne river can vary, it typically fluctuates between 5 to 20 degrees Celsius depending on seasonal changes. During summertime, when the temperatures are approximately between 15 to 20 degrees Celsius, it might be possible for some people to swim. However, it should be noted that due to the colder weather in the winter, the water temperatures drop significantly, maybe even close to freezing.
Despite the somewhat favorable summer temperatures, the Lenne river is not traditionally known for swimming activities. The water quality, the speed of the flow, and other environmental factors could make it inhospitable for safe swimming. In Germany, rivers and lakes are often monitored for their suitability for bathing so, it's advisable to check for updated local guidelines or warning signs. Additionally, for those individuals who are not used to swimming in cool open water, even the summer temperatures could potentially pose a risk of hypothermia. It is always recommended to swim in designated swimming areas under the supervision of a lifeguard for safety purposes. Safety should always be the priority when considering swimming in any open water.
