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
Garland, Texas, is situated near several lakes and creeks that offer recreational activities, though it doesn't have large natural swimming areas within the city itself. One of the more notable bodies of water in Garland is Lake Ray Hubbard, a large reservoir located just to the east of the city. The water temperature in Lake Ray Hubbard can range from 75°F to 85°F (24°C to 29°C) during the hot summer months, making it a popular spot for swimming, boating, and fishing. The lake has designated swimming areas that are maintained for safe water recreation, though it’s always a good idea to check local water quality reports before swimming.
In addition to Lake Ray Hubbard, Garland is also home to smaller bodies of water, such as Spring Creek, though swimming in these smaller creeks is less common due to their often cooler temperatures and varying water quality. Water temperatures in these creeks usually range from 55°F to 70°F (13°C to 21°C), making them more suitable for activities like fishing and hiking rather than swimming. For those looking for a controlled swimming environment, Garland has several public swimming pools where the water is maintained at a comfortable temperature of around 78°F to 82°F (25°C to 28°C), providing a safe and pleasant place to cool off during the summer.
