*** 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 Lyndon B. Johnson (Lake LBJ) in the Texas Hill Country is a warm, relatively shallow reservoir whose surface temperatures vary with the seasons. Typical winter surface temperatures commonly run in the 50–60°F range (about 10–16°C), while spring usually warms into the 60s and lower 70s°F (roughly 16–23°C). Summer surface readings often reach the mid- to upper-70s and can climb into the low 80s–90°F on hot days (around 25–32°C). In autumn the lake cools back toward the 60s–70s°F band (about 16–24°C). Local conditions, weather patterns and depth can shift these numbers day to day, and cooler water can persist in shaded coves or where cooler inflows occur.
Swimming in Lake LBJ is generally allowed and common because the lake is managed for multiple recreational uses, including boating and waterfront recreation, and public parks and private properties provide shoreline access. That said, there are areas where swimming is discouraged or restricted — near dams, intake structures, marinas or private property — and local authorities may issue temporary advisories for water quality issues such as algal blooms or contamination. Swimmers should heed posted signs, follow local regulations and be mindful of boat traffic and changing water temperatures for safety.
