Ah those lazy hazy crazy days of summer. Days of swimming and pretzels and biergartens. A near perfect day on the beach with a crew of over 25. The water was warm enough (barely) for me to keep my wetsuit in my backpack. The cold water of the last week was just the lake's gentle reminder that the season is short and we need to swim while we can.

Hi Greg. I think you may need to update the link on the blog for the atwater buoy. It's available here: http://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/show_plot.php?station=45013&meas=otmp&uom=E&time_diff=-5&time_label=CDT
and showing 68 degrees!
Can anyone share what the water temp was this morning? Wondering what gear to bring this eve.
59. Though it felt a bit warmer away from the beach.
I swam at Atwater at ~11:30am; my water temperature probe read between 65.8 and 66.8, ideal swimming temperature for me. --thelma
What's with the golf club at the bottom of the ocean?
