Water Temperature: Daily Trends, Historical Records, and Forecast

❌ As of today, the minimum water temperature ranges from 41°F (5°C) to 47°F (8°C). This water temperature is still quite low, and swimming in such conditions may only be comfortable for hardened individuals. It is recommended to limit the time spent in the water to avoid hypothermia. For those not accustomed to cold water, it is better to refrain from swimming. However, if you decide to enter the water, it is advisable to wear a warm wetsuit for protection against the cold. 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

Fletcher Pond’s water temperatures follow a typical temperate pattern driven by seasonal air temperatures, depth and inflows. In spring, surface readings commonly range from about 40–60°F (4–16°C) as the lake warms after ice-out. By midsummer the upper layers can warm to roughly 70–80°F (21–27°C) on warm sunny days, though deeper or shaded areas remain noticeably cooler. During autumn surface temperatures typically fall back into the 50–60°F (10–16°C) range as the water releases summer heat. In winter the pond often approaches freezing, with water near 32–39°F (0–4°C) and periods of ice cover possible depending on weather and snowpack.

Swimming is generally possible from a public-access standpoint, but there are usually no formal supervised beaches or lifeguards and conditions can be variable. Shallow, vegetated zones, fluctuating water levels and submerged debris can make some spots less suitable for casual swimming, and water quality can change after storms, so local advisories—if any—should be checked. Cold-water risk in spring and fall, and thin ice hazards in winter, are important safety considerations, so most people choose to swim in summer when surface temperatures are warmest and visibility and access are best.
