After your feet go numb, what is the next sign of hypothermia? I need to know what to look for. My feet go numb first. After one or two fingers go numb, i decide it's time to get out. What signs do you look for that tell you it's DEFINITELY time to get out? btw even when just the feet have gone numb, i make sure i'm no more than about 100 meters from shore.

When my jaw tightens up and it gets hard to talk... sure signs of problems to come.
The worst is after finishing a cold swim: the heartrate falls and the "big chill" sets in.
