Any East coast swimmers in outdoor pool yet?

I must be getting old, I have only entered my outdoor lap pool once since it opened on Memorial Day weekend. The water was 74, but the air temp was 80. Nights have dipped into the 40's and this morning, I planned to give it a try, however, it was 64 degrees and very windy, cloudy and the water temp was only 70. I should mention that no one was in the pool either. Every summer I run maniacly to the sports stores in hopes of finding a wetsuit that feels NOTHING like a wetsuit and come home empty handed. So, who's swimming outdoors now, with or without a wetsuit, and what are your water temps?

    Lakes swim race in Reston last weekend was in the low 70s, plenty comfortable, probably hot if in a wetsuit. Pools are chilly unless heated. The outdoor 50m pool at Hains Point in DC is heated this year, but not overheated, workouts started this week. Fresh air, summertime, half the turns.
