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
Lake Logan is a relatively shallow reservoir in southeastern Ohio, so its surface water temperatures follow typical seasonal swings for the region. In spring (April–June) expect the lake to warm from roughly 45–65°F (7–18°C) as air temperatures rise; midsummer (July–August) surface readings commonly range from about 70–80°F (21–27°C) on warm days, with the warmest, sunlit shallows occasionally reaching the mid-80s°F (around 29°C). By early autumn (September–October) temperatures usually fall back into the 60–70°F (16–21°C) band, and in late fall through winter the water approaches cold, near-freezing conditions of roughly 32–45°F (0–7°C), with ice possible in sustained cold periods. Deeper pockets remain cooler year-round.
Swimming at Lake Logan is generally governed by park rules and local health or safety advisories; it is typically possible during the warm months when water quality and conditions are acceptable, though availability of lifeguards, designated swim areas, or formal beaches may be limited. Authorities may close or advise against swimming for reasons such as algal blooms, storm runoff, low visibility, boat traffic, or cold-water hazard. Visitors should check current park notices, heed posted signs, and recognize that even in summer the water can be cool and sudden depth changes or boat activity can create risks.
