*** 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
Brief correction: Loughborough Lake is in eastern Ontario near Kingston, Canada, not in New York. Below is information about typical water temperatures and swimming conditions for Loughborough Lake in Ontario, presented neutrally. Seasonal surface temperatures vary: in winter the lake commonly approaches freezing, around 0–4 °C (32–39 °F) when ice is present; spring brings a steady rise to roughly 4–15 °C (39–59 °F) as thaw and warming occur; mid to late summer often yields the warmest surface readings, commonly in the 18–25 °C range (64–77 °F) on sunny, calm days; by fall temperatures typically fall back toward 8–15 °C (46–59 °F) as air temperatures cool and stratification breaks down.
Swimming is a typical recreational use on Loughborough Lake during the warmer months, though availability and comfort depend on seasonal temperatures, local access points and water-quality advisories. Summer surface temperatures in the mid‑teens to mid‑twenties Celsius make swimming comfortable for many people, while spring and fall cool waters are more brisk and winter swimming is only for those prepared for near‑freezing conditions. Swimmers should heed local signage, watch for hazards such as boat traffic and submerged hazards, and check recent advisories about bacterial counts or algal blooms before entering the water.
