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
Pat Mayse Lake, a shallow reservoir in northeast Texas, experiences notable seasonal variation in surface water temperature. In winter months the surface often ranges from about 40–55°F (4–13°C), which is generally too cold for comfortable swimming. Spring warms fairly quickly, with surface temperatures commonly from roughly 55–75°F (13–24°C) as ambient air heats and runoff stabilizes. Peak summer conditions can push surface waters into the mid-70s to around 90°F (24–32°C) on hot, sunny days, especially in shallower coves; late summer highs near 90°F (32°C) are not unusual. In fall the lake cools back into the 60–80°F (16–27°C) range as air temperatures moderate. Subsurface temperatures will lag surface changes and can be cooler.
Swimming at Pat Mayse Lake is generally allowed because the reservoir is a public recreational resource used for boating, fishing and shore activities, but there are few formal guarded beaches and lifeguards are typically not provided. Visitors should obey posted rules, be mindful of changing water levels, underwater hazards and boat traffic, and heed any local water-quality advisories such as algal bloom warnings. For comfortable and safe swimming pick warmer late-spring to early-fall periods when surface temperatures are in the mid-70s°F (mid-20s°C) or higher, and always take standard water-safety precautions.
