Workouts in warm water

New member to this forum. Used to swim masters for about 6 years, that was 10 years ago. I've been back in the water doing 30-40 min, 1200-1500 yds workouts trying to maintain 4-5 times a week since about two months ago. I'm trying to get back to what I used to do in my masters' workouts 2000-3000 yds in the same time. I know that I have a long way to go to get there, but today I felt slow and weighted down. Is there some correlation to warm water temps (80-82 degrees) combined with warm air temps (85-90 degrees) and feeling lethargic during workouts?? I felt like I was towing a sea anchor during my workout. I've felt this way before while swimming masters, but never asked anyone about it. Thanks in advance, any info is appreciated. Chris
