*** 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

Carnegie Lake’s water temperature varies with the seasons and with depth. In winter the surface commonly falls to near freezing, roughly 33–40°F (1–4°C). Spring sees a steady rise, often landing in the mid-40s to low 60s°F (7–16°C) as the upper layers warm. In summer surface temperatures typically reach the low to mid 70s up to around 80°F (21–27°C) on warm days, although deeper water usually remains much cooler, commonly in the 50s°F (10–15°C). By autumn the lake cools again, with surface readings generally moving back into the 50s–60s°F (10–18°C) as the season progresses.

Swimming in Carnegie Lake is generally not allowed. The lake is managed for rowing and conservation rather than open bathing, and restrictions reflect safety concerns — cold, variable temperatures and colder deep water can produce shock or dangerous conditions — as well as hazards from boating, underwater obstacles, and water-quality considerations. Because access and activities are governed by local rules and property owners, people seeking recreational swimming in the area are typically directed to designated public pools or beaches where lifeguards and regular water-quality monitoring are provided.
