*** 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 Worth, a reservoir on the western edge of Fort Worth, experiences pronounced seasonal shifts in surface water temperature. In winter months (December–February) surface temperatures commonly drop into the 40s–50s °F (4–13 °C). Spring (March–May) brings a steady rise, often from the mid‑50s up toward the mid‑70s °F (13–24 °C). Summer (June–August) is when the lake is warmest, with surface readings frequently in the mid‑70s to upper‑80s °F (24–31 °C), and on hot spells reaching into the low 90s °F (32–33 °C). In autumn (September–November) temperatures typically cool from the 70s down into the 60s °F (18–20 °C). These ranges vary with daily air temperatures, depth, wind, and weather patterns, so localized conditions can differ from general averages.
Swimming in Lake Worth is practiced by visitors but is subject to practical and safety considerations rather than widespread managed beach facilities. There are limited designated shoreline access points and few lifeguarded beaches, so many people swim near parks and boat ramps. Authorities may discourage or restrict swimming during poor water‑quality events, heavy boat traffic, high winds, submerged hazards, or harmful algal blooms, so checking current advisories is important. In summer the water is generally comfortable for swimming by temperature alone, while colder months make casual swimming uncomfortable and potentially risky because of cold‑water effects.
