*** 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 Perris tends to be warm in summer and cool in winter, with seasonal surface temperatures that vary roughly from about 50–60°F (10–16°C) in the coldest months to roughly 75–85°F (24–29°C) at the height of summer. Spring temperatures commonly rise into the low to mid 60s–70s °F (16–22°C) and autumn usually sees a gradual decline into the mid 60s–70s °F (18–24°C). These figures are approximate and can change with weather patterns, depth, and time of day; shallow areas warm faster than deeper pockets. Water that is in the 75–85°F (24–29°C) range is generally comfortable for recreational swimming, whereas temperatures below about 60°F (16°C) feel brisk and may limit time in the water for many swimmers.
Swimming at Lake Perris is allowed in designated recreational areas when park rules and public-health conditions permit; managers restrict access at times to protect visitor safety and the reservoir’s functions. Designated swim beaches are typically chosen because they keep swimmers away from boat traffic, intakes, and other hazards, and because lifeguards or safety measures may be provided seasonally. Visitors should heed posted advisories, as access can be limited for water-quality issues, low water levels, or other safety concerns.
