After a horrid heat wave, our weather in NJ is now in the 60's, rainy, cloudy and miserable. The outdoor pool I swim in is 68 degrees! I don't own a wetsuit. Any advice on swimming outside in this cold water? I usually swim 4000 yards so by about 1000 yards, my bones and muscles start to chill. I do prefer cooler water temps - in the mid 70's, but this is tough, since the air temp is so cool. The air temperature is supposed to go up to 90 in two days, which should raise water to about 70-72. Thanks for any advice!

Our outdoor pool decided to close at 6 because nobody showed up for open swim. Needless to say I was not happy at 6:30 when I had to go inside to the 25Y pool, which was mobbed. Trying to swim 7x500's is a real burden in there...I lost count and got dizzy from all the flipturns...
