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?

Sans doute, the Great Lakes are not the Great East, but we have been swimming since May 7, water ca. 52.5, air temp was 48.

Last week the water temp crept above 58 and felt downright balmy.
OMG, I cannot imagine that, do you wear a wetsuit or what???? :bow: How do you acclimate after swimming indoors all winter?
