*** 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 Tichigan, a relatively shallow lake in southeastern Wisconsin, experiences notable seasonal swings in surface temperature. In winter the lake typically freezes with surface temperatures near 32°F (0°C). Spring thaw brings temperatures up into the 40–55°F range (4–13°C), while summer afternoons commonly warm the surface to roughly 70–80°F (21–27°C), and in hot, calm spells shallow areas can climb above 80°F (27°C). Fall cooling returns temperatures toward the 50–65°F range (10–18°C). Swimming is possible and commonly practiced from late spring through early fall where there is public or shore access, but conditions vary. Dense aquatic vegetation, boat traffic, and occasional blue‑green algae blooms can affect safety and enjoyment, so local water‑quality or public‑health advisories should be checked before swimming.
Buena Lakes 359 in Wisconsin tends to show slightly different behavior depending on its depth and configuration; smaller, shallow basins warm more quickly while deeper spots stay cooler. Typical ranges are near freezing in winter (about 32°F/0°C), rising through the 38–55°F band (3–13°C) in spring and reaching roughly 65–75°F (18–24°C) in summer surface waters, with shallower areas sometimes similar to Tichigan on hot days. Swimming may be allowed where public access or private permission exists, but accessibility, water clarity, submerged plants, and periodic algal advisories determine whether it is advisable at any given time.
