*** 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
Hyland Lake in Bloomington, Minnesota, follows the seasonal patterns typical of shallow metro lakes. In spring the surface water commonly ranges from about 45–65°F (7–18°C) as it warms after ice-out. By mid to late summer surface temperatures often reach roughly 70–80°F (21–27°C), with occasional warm spells pushing the upper end a few degrees higher. In fall the lake cools back toward 40–55°F (4–13°C). During winter the surface freezes; exposed ice and slush sit near 32°F (0°C), while water beneath the ice tends to be around 39°F (4°C), the temperature of maximum density for freshwater.
Swimming at Hyland Lake is generally possible in the warmer months, but it is largely informal rather than a supervised beach operation. Because there is not a major lifeguarded public beach, visitors rely on posted guidance and personal judgment. Water quality issues such as algae or cyanobacteria blooms, dense aquatic vegetation, and variable clarity can prompt temporary advisories or closures, and the lake’s cool shoulder-season and winter temperatures make swimming uncomfortable and unsafe due to hypothermia and ice hazards. Check local signage and public-health advisories before entering the water.
