Our pool hit 74 yesterday so we tossed the kids in they had a blast. They were shivering and still wouldn't get out.
Good see old friends

Water just went above 70 today and DH went in after doing a lot of physical work in the mid-80's heat. Went in up to his waist and said that third (last) step into the pool was a killer!!!:eek:
I was in mine on the 25th @ 70 degrees. Let me rephrase that, I was very briefly in for a short time on the 25th.
I've become very thin blooded in my short tenure in the South ;) I used to swim in my folks' pool and Lake Michigan in the mid to upper 60's!!
Didn't get in, but my pool made it to 73F...
Now winter is deciding to come back, it was 83F today, and it is going to be 42F tomorrow! They say it will make it back to low 60's in about a week, I enjoyed the 80+ weather while it lasted. :(
I havent been in but my oldest boy jumped in to help get the cover off. He commented about freezing parts of his body off while in the pool so I havent had the parts he froze off to get in yet. Checked the temp and was around 65 to 68 so I will wait for a while untill it hits at least 75.

Now I know why I live in Florida!;) Pool's been in the high 70's for the past 3 weeks and I turned on the heater to bump it into the low 80's. Air temp has been high 70's to low 80's during the day. Swimming's been great!
Yep, since last week. kids have been in several times. Water temp is 75 degrees today...I won't get in until 80, but they're having a ball.

Water is 77 degrees. Grandson got in at 72 degrees and we couldn't get him out! I've been tempted, but haven't braved it yet. Weather is suppose cool way down the next few days.:mad:
Air temp was in the 70's again today. Of course they're predicting 20's tomorrow:rolleyes: It ain't spring yet.:mad:

Northern CA and my water hit 84 degrees over the weekend. Oversized solar with a cover does wonders this time of year.
I live outside Fort Worth (Crowley) and my water hit 78 degrees yesterday so I took a dip and enjoyed it. It was cold for about 5 seconds then I was used to it. I had to get out quickly though as big storms came through again. Got out just before the hail hit. Luckily the hail only got about quarter size. A couple miles west got baseball size. Temps are quite a bit cooler today and will be for several days so swimming in the next week will probably not be in the forecast. Bummer.:( I won't complain though, we had been pretty dry for a few years so the last several months of rain has been awesome for the lakes and my yard.

Kids have been swimming for about 2 weeks. Water hit 85 yesterday with 60% coverage of Solar Sun Rings and 4 - 2x20 ft solar panels. Solar setup is still low tech, but it helps. I guess being in AZ is cheating :)
Swam April 2nd and 3rd in water between 66 and 68 degrees. It was not bad at all! I did not even use my wet suit.
Pools been 92 for weeks. Loving the weather! Every weekend is a mini vacation.
Oh yeah. We're swimming. Sure. Right. Wanna buy a bridge?
The last 4 nights it's gone down into the 20's.
In April.
In New Jersey.:mad:
I feel your pain...I'm in New Hampshire.Quote:

Sleet, freezing rain, and the possibility of several inches of the white stuff tonight in Northeast PA. Bah !!
Just added some bleach and dissolved cal hypo to the pool. Slight tinge of algae forming. Water temp 45F. So much for the BS that algae doesn't grow under 50.

Mine was up to about 80 last week. After the latest cold front, with night time temperatures as low as the high 30s, it was down to 66. Damn this global warming.
Hey y'all:
We had been up consistently in the 80's, even a few day's in the 90's; but over night temps still going in to the 40's. Added bleach & turned on filter for several hours as water temp up to 62. Actually considered opening. However, we had a extended cold spell over the Easter weekend, so water temps are WAY TOO low now to even considered opening. This is the time of year when I also start debating adding a heater, but so far we have not. Oh well, maybe next year.

Hi everybody, can't wait to open the old pool up! Opening day for me is May 11. Just want to say hello to everyone - hope your winter wasn't too bad. I'm so glad to be back on the pool forum ready for another swim season!:)
Just opened the pool over the weekend and my daughter has been using the spill over spa but the pool is too cold to get into. The water was 53 when we opened over the weekend.
Pool temp is around 72 right now. Took a quick (very quick :p ) dip Saturday after working in the yard all day.
