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!

Ditto here.
You grew up in, more or less, latitude 33.76 N (Atlanta's coordinates).
I grew up 3+ degrees (deeper) South of you (Cairo 30.02 N)
I'm not from here. I'm from 28 82 (Clearwater FL). Atlanta is way too far north for me to call home. Any place above the frost line is unhuman and insane.
Every time I drive on I-75 and see the line of people coming down, I never ask why; but, what took you so long.
