Water Temperature: Daily Trends, Historical Records, and Forecast
⚠️ As of today, the minimum water temperature ranges from 60°F (15°C) to 65°F (18°C). The water is comfortable for most people, making it an ideal range for water sports enthusiasts. The temperature does not cause significant discomfort, and swimming will be pleasant for the majority. However, it's important to remember that prolonged exposure to the water can still lead to cooling, so it's essential to monitor the time spent in the water, especially for children or elderly people. It is important to note that these swimming tips and recommendations apply only in good weather. When the air temperature is below 68°F (20°C), and sometimes even below 77°F (25°C), swimming can be unpleasant even with relatively high water temperatures.

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.

The Khorol is a mid-sized river in Ukraine and a tributary of the Psel, flowing across Sumy and Poltava regions. Over the course of the year its water temperature shifts significantly with the seasons. In winter, parts of the river freeze or near-freeze, and water temperatures can approach the freezing point in shallow zones. As spring progresses and meltwater feeds the stream, temperatures climb, but often remain cool—many sections stay in the +5 to +12 °C range through early spring.
In summer, particularly in July and August, the Khorol warms up noticeably. In favorable spots (shallow, sunlit, slow flow) temperatures in some years have reached the low 20s °C (around +20 to +23 °C), making swimming more comfortable. Yet even then, in deeper or faster stretches, water can feel cooler and may limit how long a person wants to stay in. By autumn the cooling resumes: September might still offer moderate water, but by late October the river becomes too cold again for prolonged bathing. In general, safe and comfortable swimming in the Khorol is most feasible during a window of summer months, when air and water temperatures align.
