How warm can water be to swim a hard workout in and when does it become a health hazard?

Personally, anything ranging 75 to 80 degrees is ideal when swimming in a pool.
I had a friend who used to swim at the Downtown YMCA, where I live and he told me that it was downright nasty. Icky, cloudy, 90 degree water in the lap pool, or what he and I call the patented BWW (Bath Water Warm) Technology, which is pretty gross, especially if you're swimming in it. ..::Ewww!!!::.. :LOL!: :p
