Water Temperature: Daily Trends, Historical Records, and Forecast
❌ As of today, the minimum water temperature ranges from 50°F (10°C) to 54°F (12°C). The water is slightly warmer, but still cool for most people. Swimming in such conditions is possible, but for most people, the time spent in the water should be limited to avoid hypothermia. Even experienced swimmers may feel discomfort if they stay in the water for too long. To improve comfort and safety, a wetsuit can be used. It is important to note that these swimming tips and recommendations apply only in good weather. When the air temperature is below 68°F (20°C), and sometimes even below 77°F (25°C), swimming can be unpleasant even with relatively high water temperatures.

*** 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
#North Yorkshire
Angram Reservoir sits high in Nidderdale and is typically cold year‑round. In summer the surface water may warm to roughly 12–17 °C (54–63 °F) on sunny days, while spring and autumn averages are closer to 6–12 °C (43–54 °F). In winter temperatures commonly fall to around 1–6 °C (34–43 °F), and deeper water remains markedly colder. These figures are approximate; wind, depth and recent weather all affect actual temperatures and colder currents can occur even in summer.
Swimming at Angram is generally not permitted or recommended. The reservoir forms part of the local drinking water supply and has steep banks, hidden drop-offs and cold, fast-changing conditions that pose a risk of cold shock and drowning. For those wanting outdoor water activity, organised or designated open‑water venues with lifeguards are safer choices. The area however offers excellent alternatives: the Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, nearby Scar House and Gouthwaite reservoirs, extensive walking and cycling routes and the market town of Pateley Bridge for facilities and local history.
